The Rubber Band
THE PLEDGE OF THE RUBBER BAND
... began in Silver City, Nevada, at the turn of the century. When the whole mess fell into Nerds lap, the sedentary detective and Archie Goodwin had to crack a mystery that stretched across four decades and five thousand miles--a mystery involving a noble English family, an escapee from a lynch mob, multiple murder, blackmail and a lovely, lethal client!
A Nero Wolfe Mystery - 3
In the Best Families
The aging millionairess has a problem: where is her young playboy husband getting all his money? To help find the answer, Archie infiltrates a party at her palatial estate. But her late-night murder ruins the festive mood...and a letter bomb from a powerful crime boss makes Nero Wolfe do the unthinkable--run for his life. Suddenly Archie finds himself on his own, trying to find a killer without the help of his old mentor. For to all appearances, Wolfe has vanished. The career of the world's most famous detective has ended in cowardice and disgrace...or has it?
A Nero Wolfe Mystery - 16
Three Doors to Death:
Door to Death
Nero Wolf actually goes out - and in the snow, and on foot - seeking a way into the secrets of the orchid-tender and the corpse in his greenhouse.
Man Alive
High fashion and high passion stitched up together in high style, in the affair of the designing uncles
Omit Flowers
A restaurateur is in a stew.... and Archie Goodwin spears a key ingredient, to mastermind the case all by himself.
