THE CLUE is the first book in the Fleming Stone Mystery series by famed New Jersey mystery writer Carolyn Wells (1862-1942). Librarian, author, poet, journalist Wells wrote a total of 170 books, including poetry, humor, and children’s books, but she is best remembered for her mystery novels, the most successful being her Fleming Stone series.

Madeleine Van Norman is found stabbed to death on the night before her wedding. The heiress is found in the library of her sprawling country mansion stabbed with her own Venetian letter-opener. Though a suicide note is found, the list of potential suspects grows. Who would benefit from the rich woman’s death? There is her groom who was having an affair. There are family members who might not want her to marry to save their inheritance. There is the groom’s secret lover. Or could it have been the secretary?

Rediscover one of the great American mystery writers and her finest work. THE CLUE is a closed-environment traditional mystery that will remind you of the other greats, including Agatha Christie and Ellery Queen.
