Condition: New

Its a wily killer who dares to strike on Nero Wolfes hallowed turf-and leave a corpse strangled with Wolfes own soup-stained tie. But no sooner does the gourmandizing sleuth clean up this first course of murder than he faces a gun-toting wife who serves up a confession of homicidal intent-only to become the sole suspect when the corpus delicti is found. Its murder la carte when the third course is served: a cop-hating landlady brings Wolfe counterfeit cash-that leads to genuine murder. Its up to Wolfe to see that the malefactors get their just deserts.Introduction by Stephen GreenleafIt is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery.

Now, with his perambulatory man-about-town, Archie Goodwin, the arrogant, gourmandizing, sedentary sleuth is back in the original seventy-three cases of crime and detection written by the inimitable master himself, Rex Stout.
