Sinopse

A horse race turns into a murder case . . . “Mr. Van Dine’s amateur detective is the most gentlemanly, and probably the most scholarly snooper in literature.” —Chicago Daily Tribune Aristocratic detective Philo Vance has gotten an anonymous invitation to a New York rooftop garden, where a group of wealthy friends gather to listen to the horse races. But on the night Vance attends, a guest dies of a gunshot wound after losing a load of money on a bet. Vance doesn’t think it was suicide, though—and when two other people in the household are targeted, he has to take the lead in this Golden Age mystery featuring the classic character with a “highbrow manner and [a] parade of encyclopedic learning” (The New York Times).“One of the high water mark Van Dine yarns.” —Kirkus Reviews “The perfect sleuth for the Jazz Age.” —CrimeReads “The Philo Vance novels were well-crafted puzzlers that captivated readers . . . the works of S.S. Van Dine serve to transport the reader back to a long-gone era of society.” —Mystery Scene “Outrageous cleverness.” —Bloody Murder

    From comedian and writer (Parks and Recreation, Eastbound & Down) Harris Wittels comes a hysterical breakdown of boasts, brags, and self-adulation disguised as humble comments and complaints-based on his popular @humblebrag Twitter feed.Something immediately annoyed Harris Wittels about Twitter. All of a sudden it was acceptable to brag, so long as those brags were ever-so-thinly disguised as transparent humility, such as:"Just filed my taxes. Biggie was right, mo money mo problems.""I hate when I go into a store to get something to eat and the male staff are too busy hitting on me to get my order right :( so annoying!"Taking action by naming this phenomenon and creating the Twitter account called Humblebrag-dedicated solely to retweeting the humblebrags of others-Wittels's new word took the Internet by storm. Harris also shows readers what humblebrags might look like from some of history's most notable names, as well as devoting an entire chapter to a man who just might be the greatest humblebraggart of them all...
