Description
The glamorous Hawthorne sisters—April, May, and June—turn to Nero Wolfe when their brother Noel’s final wishes threaten to unleash a scandal within their powerful family. Soon, a suspicious death draws Wolfe and Archie Goodwin into a tangled investigation involving inheritance, family rivalries, and the dangerous consequences of a will. As Archie faces mounting pressure from the police and Wolfe is forced beyond the familiar routines of his brownstone, the detective duo must unravel a case where written agreements and unspoken loyalties matter equally. Rex Stout’s signature blend of ingenious deduction, sharp dialogue, and the spirited intellectual contest between Wolfe and Archie drives this classic mystery toward a forceful final confrontation.
