Description
In a seemingly idyllic small town, Ellery Queen finds himself drawn into a web of intrigue and deceit when a string of mysterious deaths rock the community. As he delves deeper into the case, it becomes clear that someone is skillfully orchestrating a series of murders through poison, leaving behind a trail of suspicion. The stakes rise when Queen himself is framed as the prime suspect, forcing him to navigate a perilous path with both his reputation and freedom on the line.
With his keen intellect and unyielding determination, Queen is compelled to unravel the twisted motives behind the sinister acts. Each clue brings him closer to the truth, but also deeper into the dark corners of human malice that lurk beneath the town's charming facade. Relationships become strained, alliances shift, and the line between friend and foe blurs as the real killer watches from the shadows.
As the tension mounts, Queen races against time to clear his name while seeking justice for the innocent lives shattered by the poisoner’s hand. He must rely on his wits and intuition to solve this chilling mystery before it's too late, all while unveiling the secrets that bind the townspeople together—secrets that may lead him closer to the murderer or to his own downfall.
