The army wants Nero Wolfe urgently, but he refuses their clarion call to duty. It takes Archie Goodwin to titillate Wolfes taste for crime with two malevolent morsels: a corpse that refuses to rest in peace and a sinister accident involving national security. Its up to the Grandiose Master himself, Nero Wolfe, to set the traps to catch a pair of wily killers-as Archie lays the bait on the wrong side of the law.Introduction by John LutzIt is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery.
