About this listen

Previously part of a collection, this rare Ellery Queen mystery is available as a standalone audiobook for the first time.

In "The Three Students", Ellery is challenged to solve an imaginary riddle devised by three members of the Puzzle Club. He must decide which of the titular trio (handily named Adams, Barnes, and Carver) stole a valuable ring from a university president's desk.

These short stories are a bit frivolous, but fun while they last. The narrator is perfect.
