Synopsis

Ellery Queen and Sherlock Holmes match wits to reveal the identity of history's most infamous and depraved killer.Ellery Queen and Sherlock Holmes are the undisputed masters of analytical deduction—their talents and methods strikingly, almost uncannily, alike. Through the strange interlocking of events past and present, the two celebrated detectives meet to focus their razor-sharp intellects—and their brilliant powers of observation—on the mystery of Jack the Ripper.Jack the Ripper's victims were the whores of Whitechapel. Lurking in narrow, fog-shrouded alleys, he crept forth night after night to murder—and mutilate. Eluding Scotland Yard's most heroic efforts to track him down, the Ripper continued to satisfy his unnatural appetites, unrestrained and unidentified. Can Queen and Holmes unmask the notorious killer?Uniquely imaginative, A Study in Terror is a masterpiece of mystery and suspense.

About Ellery Queen

Ellery Queen is a pseudonym used by two American cousins from Brooklyn—Daniel Nathan, alias Frederic Dannay (1905–1982), and Manford (Emanuel) Lepofsky, alias Manfred Bennington Lee (1905–1971)—to write detective fiction. In a successful series of novels that covered forty-two years, Ellery Queen served as both the authors’ name and that of the detective-hero. The cousins also cofounded and directed Ellery Queen’s 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.

Ellery Queen took on Jack the Ripper and Sherlock Holme all at once! Well, I didn't have much high hope for this novella and in the end, it isn't very exciting..........the whole thing is decent but I'm not gonna go gaga over it. 2.9 stars only.......more

Goodreads review by Riju on April 23, 2011

This book has been so widely discussed and read that there seems to be hardly anything new that can be added, except my strictly personal opinions, which are: - 1. The Victorian part of the story is excellent in its language, Holmesian deductions, atmosphere, and sharp & tight narrative. I enjoyed it......more
