I have been a fan of Nero Wolfe books for over fifty years. I have all of those by Rex Stout many times. I have read some the books by Robert Goldsborough and I like his rendition of the characters. He has caught their essence and is expanding their development. Nero is coveting a rare orchid and sends Archie undercover in order to earn a plant. At the end of Archie’s first day, there is a murdered man. Now Nero must contend with Inspector Cramer and the news media as the composite drawing of the mystery man is Archie. Of course, Nero calls in Saul to take Archie’s place. Will Wolfe solved the case to earn that orchid. I like the ending. I highly recommend this book.
Disclosure: I received a free copy from Open Roads Integrated through NetGalley for an honest review. I would like to thank them for this opportunity to read and review the book. The opinions expressed are my own.
