"Set against the background of a Parisian chess tournament and including an unusual murder weapon and a trap for the killer, the novella from the fourth and last issue of CCMM (August 1974) is also highly enjoyable. The fun quotient would be even greater with authentic Chan dialogue, but according to Pronzini's introduction, the editors' dubious updating efforts led them to excise most of the aphorisms."--Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine
