Story
It’s a wily killer who dares to strike on Nero Wolfe’s hallowed turf - and leave a corpse strangled with Wolfe’s 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.

Story
Ever since disgraced associate Orrie Cather’s suicide, armchair detective Nero Wolfe has relished retirement in his Manhattan brownstone on West 35th Street. Two years after Cather’s death, only a visit from Maria Radovich - and the urging of Wolfe’s prize assistant, Archie Goodwin - could draw the eccentric and reclusive genius back into business. Maria’s uncle, New York Symphony Orchestra conductor Milan Stevens, formerly known as Milos Stefanovic, spent his youth alongside Wolfe as a fellow freedom fighter in the mountains of Montenegro.

Story
It's 1978. Nero Wolfe, New York's 300-pound epicurean genius detective, has been dead for two years, leaving Archie holding the brownstone. In a post-Wolfe dystopia with a sense of humor, Archie, Saul, Fritz, and Cramer find themselves in the crosshairs of a worldwide criminal cartel. In America, it's a time of change: Vietnam, Watergate, free love, smallpox, the reserve clause, and cheap oil are all history. Aided and abetted by Roy Cohn, Richard Wragg, Dorothy Bruce, the Army, FBI, CIA, and the Dutch police, will Saul and Archie live up to Wolfe's legacy?

Detection at its Best
- By M. Giorgi on 01-04-21
Publisher's Summary
When a group of publishers and writers hires Wolfe to solve a case of false plagiarism, it's time for the great detective to hit the books. Four unrelated accusers - including a down-and-out hack writer and a lady poet with a penchant for nude sunbathing - have been fleecing best-selling authors, claiming the authors have stolen their work and ingeniously planting evidence to back up their claims. But when punctuation gives way to puncture, Wolfe knows this is no simple case of extortion. This time he'll need all the critical skills at his disposal to close the book on a killer well versed on the ABCs of murder.
Introduction by Susan Dunlap
“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 America’s 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.
Critic Reviews
"What's not to like about a Nero Wolfe mystery? The mysteries are short, cleverly plotted, well paced, and, if you're an audiobook listener, wonderfully read by Michael Prichard. In this breezy title, Nero Wolfe, aided by his faithful employee, Archie, exposes an extortion plot involving plagiarism and catches a cold-blooded killer. Michael Pritchard has read nearly 20 books in Stout's series and has mastered Wolfe's deep, meditative voice and Archie's spry, chipper voice, as well as those of a host of other characters we recognize from one recording to the next."

Still one of the elite private detectives
Readers familiar with Rex Stout's tales of Nero Wolfe and his Associate Archie Goodwin will be gratified to see that the Old Master retained his mastery of the detective story form to the end of his long writing career.
Civilized, articulate, short on explicit violence and long on solid craftsmanship, this late book in the series will give pleasure to long-time readers.
For those, perhaps attracted by the excellent TV series of some years back, this offering should be no disappointment. The narrator, I imagine, has had a longer engagement with these characters than anyone but the late author. His reading reinforces the different characteristics of the two leading characters and offers none of the failed efforts of some to reproduce male and female voices with verisimilitude. He allows the text and subtle variations in intonation to work their magic in the listeners mind.
The plot retains its interest throughout the book without resorting to the complex variations,misplaced psychologizing and ready sex play which bog down the straight ahead story line preferred by the "classic" detective story writers of his era.

Plot It Yourself is a good listen.
I love Michael Pritchard as the narrator of the Nero Wolfe books. This is a good story with interesting characters well drawn and I think Rex Stout got in a few digs about the publishing industry of his time. Well done.

Good, not great Stout
You can't go wrong with Michael Pritchard narrating the Wolfe tales. I recommend listening to this in one sitting, or several close together, as there are a lot of characters to keep track of, and you don't want to think "Now, who is this person again?" The plot is nothing special, although Wolfe does forgo both beer and meat until he solves the puzzle, which makes for some fun scenes.

This was an earlier version of Nero Wolfe than I had read before (thought I'd read them all, but I hadn't read this one). I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to Nero Wolfe fans - not the best Wolfe but very enjoyable.

Another Great Nero Wolfe
This is a really good Nero Wolfe novel. I like the cast of characters and the story setup. I found the culmination slightly weaker than the very best of Nero Wolfe, but it was still very well worth the listen. The narration, as usual, was excellent. The story has the expected twists and surprises. Very satisfying..

Rex Stout is consistent; always good writing!
Having been reading, and rereading Stout’s Nero Wolfe mysteries since 1985, I am constantly amazed at the difference an excellent writer can make when it comes to making his books/stories readable over and over again.
Atmosphere is everything. Within the walls of the brownstone in New York City, Nero Wolfe, Archie, Wolfe’s legman, Fritz the cook, and Theodore up in the plant rooms on the roof who cares for the thousands of orchids (to which Wolfe joins him twice a day for 2 hours), is the main setting of the stories. Adding Inspector Cramer, Stg. Stebbins, the client(s), suspects, assorted other characters needed to round out the story, then of course Archie’s wit and guesses as to who-dun-it, and you are entertained and kept guessing to the last page.
Waiting two or more years between, I will begin reading the books and short stories in the order they were written, beginning with “Fer-de-Lance” (1934) and ending with “A Family Affair” (1975), I enjoy catching the feeling of the era each book was written as they progress from the mid 1930s and progress, one or two years between each book or story, up to mid 1970s. Another book of was published in 1985 after the discovery of three short stories that had yet to be enjoyed by the millions of Nero Wolfe fans still around.
If you like mysteries, one’s that are clean, except for an occasional god..mn, you just may get hooked on theses. Online there are numerous places one can find all the books that Stout published along with the dates of copyright. Or inside one of the paperbacks that are still available today. It took a bit of time but I was able to collect all the Nero Wolfe mysteries that I now have on my bookshelves, along with a number in ebook format (to be able to read more easily when traveling) along with all the audio books I’ve been able to find (a great way to lay back and relax and enjoy without having to hold a book or device).
