Ellery Queen
A proposito di questo titolo
When a Western star is gunned down at a rodeo, Ellery Queen saddles up to solve the mystery.
Buck Horne has roped thousands of cattle, slugged his way out of dozens of saloons, and shot plenty of men dead in the street - but always on the back lot. He's a celluloid cowboy, and his career is nearly kaput. The real box-office draw is his daughter, Kit, a brawling beauty who can out shoot any rascal the studio has to offer. Desperate for a comeback, Buck joins Wild Bill Grant's traveling rodeo for a show in New York, hoping to land one last movie contract. But he has scarcely mounted his horse when he falls to the dirt. It wasn't age that made him slip - it was the bullet in his heart. Watching from the stands are Ellery Queen, debonair sleuth, and his police detective father. They are New Yorkers through and through, but to solve the rodeo killing, the Queens must learn to talk cowboy.

Ellery and the cowboys
Ellery Queen can be unsufferable, and indeed he often is in the early novels. Here too. This story has its heartwarming and funny moments, as well as some more poignant ones, but it is overall a bit too over the top in both concept and execution. Low stars for the otherwise great narrator because of the inexplicable Irish accent he gave to Inspector Queen, it took me out of the story every time.
