Summary
The final novel by the legendary Ellery Queen, A Fine and Private Place ranks with Queen's incomparable best.
The nine-word clue was one of nine cryptic notes that had been sent to taunt Inspector Queen and his son Ellery nine days after the murder. Nino Importuna had been obsessed with the number. He had lived by it. Now the killer who brought a trio of gory deaths to Nino's ninth-floor penthouse at Number 99 East wascamouflaging his identity in a jungle of nines - and daring Ellery to find him. The case was destined to be a dazzling contest of wits - to the ninth degree!

Really Boring
5 minutes describing the dents made in the carpet by a desk doesn’t make a good listen . Dreadful book

Tedious
Reading was fine.
Plot was fairly obvious and would probably have been solved by the police if Ellery Queen hadn't horned in on the case. Instead his interference dragged a simple qui bono mystery out into interminable length and maybe enabled the killer to escape justice.
