Starting in the late 30's a more accesible Ellery appeared. Check out "Four of Hearts" and "Devil To Pay". Also "Cat of Many Tails" is a great thriller about Ellery's hunt for a serial killer in 1940's Manhattan.Michael C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07769804353594973267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15624230.post-74997296919191355552008-05-29T13:50:00.000-04:002008-05-29T13:50:00.000-04:00Have you seen the comics-themed episode Cleveland ...Have you seen the comics-themed episode Cleveland Amory reviews in this column?
