Description

The aging millionairess has a problem where is her young playboy husband getting all his money? To help find the answer, Archie infiltrates a party at her palatial estate. But her late-night murder ruins the festive mood…and a letter bomb from a powerful crime boss makes Nero Wolfe do the unthinkable – run for his life. Suddenly Archie finds himself on his own, trying to find a killer without the help of his old mentor. For to all appearances, Wolfe has vanished. The career of the worlds most famous detective has ended in cowardice and disgrace…or has it? Introduction by Patricia Sprinkle It is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore. (The New York Times Book Review) A grand master of the form, Rex Stout is one of Americas greatest mystery writers, and his literary creation Nero Wolfe is one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time. Together, Stout and Wolfe have entertained – and puzzled – millions of mystery fans around the world. Now, with his perambulatory man-about-town, Archie Goodwin, the arrogant, gourmandizing, sedentary sleuth is back in the original 73 cases of crime and detection written by the inimitable master himself, Rex Stout.
