    T.S. of The New York Times said, "A talkative little puzzler is The Case of the Black Parrot, now at the Palace. It is complete with standard equipment—a priceless old cabinet with secret drawers, a be-ribboned packet of scented letters, veiled women bearing a double identity, muffled figures silhouetted at the library window as the clock chimes midnight, and a butler with a guilt complex (probably because all the scenarists are pointing the finger of suspicion at him, but that doesn't fool us any more). But somehow each moment of suspense is merely a prelude to long-winded deductions in the library. In short, The Case of the Black Parrott is on the verbose side, though there's no such bird in it."
