Previously part of a collection, this rare Ellery Queen mystery is available as a stand-alone audiobook for the first time.
In โTerror Town,โ the small New England town of Northfield is deftly sketched as the background for a series of violent deaths, all on the exact same spot: the muddy gravesite where the first body, that of a farmerโs son, had been found.
Ellery Queen is a pseudonym used by two American cousins from BrooklynโDaniel Nathan, alias Frederic Dannay (1905โ1982), and Manford (Emanuel) Lepofsky, alias Manfred Bennington Lee (1905โ1971)โto write detective fiction. In a successful series of novels that covered forty-two years, Ellery Queen served as both the authorsโ name and that of the detective-hero. The cousins also cofounded and directed Ellery Queenโs Mystery Magazine, one of the most influential English crime-fiction magazines of the twentieth century. They were given the Grand Master Award for achievements in the field of the mystery story by the Mystery Writers of America in 1961.
