Publisher's Summary

It was a broadcaster's worst nightmare: dead air, in the true sense. A radio host's on-air guest is anything but live, dropping dead after chugging a sponsor's beverage.

A hefty contingency fee prompts Nero Wolfe to snoop around. But the portly detective finds that all of the case's principal players lie through their teeth. Through the maze of deceit, Wolfe probes for the truth.

Stout fellow: explore our list of Nero Wolfe mysteries, including novels and classic radio programs.

©1948 Rex Stout; (P)1995 Books on Tape

    Story
    "You can't go wrong with Rex Stout"

    This isn't one of the better Nero Wolfe mysteries, but even the less wonderful ones are better than most of what's out there. Michael Prichard always brings out Archie's sly deadpan sarcasm and Wolfe's misanthropic stubbornness with great skill.

    "The best!"

    It doesn't get any better than "And be a Villain." A great story and Michael Pritchard is a great reader for these stores. This story has a highlight of Wolfe confronting his great nemesis Arnold Zeck!
