Customer Reviews

One of Queen's best

The early Queens -- all titled The Mystery are all excellent, with intricate puzzles and carefully deduced solutions. Most feature a "Challenge to the Reader". This is one of the very best (others being French Powder and Chinese Orange). Later Queens are less impressive for the most part.
