      About This Book

      HIS TURN TO KILL

      JERIN was a mental freak--one of those eerily brilliant geniuses who could play a dozen games of chess all at once and win every one of them.

      BLOUNT was a millionaire fanatic with a fiendishly ingenious plan for beating Jerin at his favorite pastime. It all worked out beautifully until Jerin keeled over dead.

      Then it was up to Nero Wolfe and Archie to prove that Blount's plan hadn't included murder.
