title: The Dragon Murder Case
author:  S. S. Van Dine 
description: <B>Penzler Pick, March 2000</B>: How does one discuss the Philo Vance mysteries by S.S. Van Dine? The best of them are meticulously plotted fair play adventures--the apotheosis of America's golden age of detective fiction, along with Ellery Queen's stories. When first published, they were the most successful mysteries ever, topping bestseller lists for months at a time. The books reflect the lives of the upper class in New York during what can be described as the art deco era of the 1920s and '30s in a way that encourages nostalgia for that time of martinis and penthouses.
