The Greek Coffin Mystery (Ellery Queen Series, Book #4) by Ellery Queen
The scion of a famous New York art-dealing family, Georg Khalkis spent his final years housebound with blindness until he died of a heart attack. After his funeral, his will mysteriously vanishes. Following a thorough search, Inspector Richar Queen's son, Ellery, suggests checking the coffin, where they discover not one, but two corpses.
When the second body is identified as an ex-convict, it becomes clear they have a murder case on their hands with links to the art world and a Da Vinci forgery. It's up to young Ellery Queen to solve the case in "a lively and well-constructed yarn containing unusual setting, ingenuity of plot, a surprise solution, and legitimate use of the analytico-deductive method" (New York Herald Tribune Book Review).
