Juvenile Novels Attributed To Ellery Queen, Jr.
These novels were edited by Lee and ghosted by various authors, including Frank Belknap Long (who admitted writing two without mentioning the titles), Samuel Duff McCoy, and James Clark Carlisle, Jr., who "aroused the ire of Lee by farming out the writing of some of the books to a "sub-ghost", which has made establishing authorship even worse". All the "Junior" novels with a colour in their title starred Djuna (see Ellery Queen), the Queens' houseboy. "The Mystery of the Merry Magician" and "The Mystery of the Vanished Victim" starred "Gulliver Queen", Ellery's nephew.
