From Library Journal - Nasty, unethical business tycoon A.J. Strode needs one more block of shares in order to destroy House of Glass. He blackmails three apparently honest stockholders with evidence of past murders, and then arranges for them to choose who will sell and who will go to jail. The three "victims," of course, concoct a vicious plan of their own--one which ultimately involves another murder. Changing points of view, an elegant mansion setting, and standard plot manipulations all lead to a serious, slick production. Despite a few stylistic flaws and a total lack of the comic, this is nearly as good as But He Was Already Dead When I Got There.
