Nobody knows anything, everybody hunts for a stolen treasure, and the whole story remains mysterious and boring until the very end. A waste of time. I listened to the audiobook, recorded by LibriVox volunteers, and as a non-native speaker, I had trouble understanding some of the chapters, due to a very strong accent of one of the narrators. This naturally added to the fact that I didn't enjoy the story. 1911 Baldpate Inn in Upper Asquewan Falls, William Magee has made an arrangement to stay at the closed mountain resort, alone. Then the holders of the other 6 available keys start arriving. What is it that they want, who is the real owner of the package. Is Magee the only innocent.

Hoping for peace and quiet, a novelist checks in to a secluded hotel and becomes part of a noisy conspiracy in this classic mystery from the creator of Charlie Chan After years of churning out potboilers, novelist Billy Magee decides that he needs just two months of solitude to produce a work of true literary merit. New York is too crowded with distractions, so he embarks on a journey to the loneliest place he knows: a rambling summer resort that has been closed for the winter. He plans to live by candlelight and firewood for the next eight weeks, with nothing to do but write. On his very first night at Baldpate Inn, however, Magee receives an unwelcome visitor. For some reason, the man is very nervous. Could it have something to do with the revolver clutched in his hand? Magee was promised the only key to the hotel, but five more peculiar interlopers arrive, each with a key. It is clear that the author is caught up in a strange and baffling plot. The question is, who's pulling the strings? Magee hopes to find out soon, lest he turn up dead before he can start his book.
