Description
When a wealthy man dies suddenly on a golf course, brilliant but reclusive detective Nero Wolfe suspects the death was no accident—and that an ingenious weapon is involved. From his Manhattan brownstone, Wolfe directs his energetic assistant Archie Goodwin through a tense investigation involving family secrets, hidden motives, and a trail that stretches beyond the city. Blending sharp deduction, dry wit, vivid characterization, and fast-moving action, this classic mystery introduces the celebrated partnership at the heart of one of detective fiction’s most enduring series.
