Summary
- "Like Sherlock Holmes and Watson before them, the brilliant but curmudgeonly Nero Wolfe and his streetwise sidekick Archie Goodwin are crime's greatest nemeses. With Nero preferring to solve crimes at home amid his orchid collection, it is Archie who does the legwork about town to allow Wolfe to unravel the most confounding mysteries. Together the duo cracks cases of murder, deception, blackmail, and more, resulting in an unforgettable confection of suspense and style"--Container.
