Description
An art hoarderâs suspicious death paints a nasty picture for Nero Wolfe.
No matter how fabulously heâs being courted, infamously dour âart hogâ Arthur Wordell isnât keen on favoring the new Guggenheim Museum with his extensive collection. Even at the urging of his beloved daughter, Nadia. Then, the night after the museumâs fĂȘte, Arthur takes a twenty-story plunge from the window of his Times Square office. Nadia thinks itâs no mere coincidence.
Eccentric, yes. Suicidal, no. Private investigator Nero Wolfe and his assistant, Archie Goodwin, agree. Especially after eyeballing Arthurâs enemies and sycophants, including his ex-wife, a covetous curator, a troika of obsequious advisors, and an outrĂ© Greenwich Village artist anxious to see her work out of storage and on the walls of the âGuggie.â
For Wolfe, thereâs a problem: Arthur didnât leave a will. Without a beneficiary not a soul in Arthurâs circle is set to benefit from his death. Nor do they show any customary indication of guilt. If anybody can solve a seemingly unsolvable masterpiece of murder, itâs Wolfe. Unfortunately, this time, New Yorkâs artful investigator is, admittedly, stumped.
Continuing the acclaimed seriesâwhich also includes The Battered Badge, Archie Meets Nero Wolfe, Murder in the Ball Park, Archie in the Crosshairs, and Murder, Stage LeftâNero Awardâwinning author Robert Goldsborough âdoes a masterly job with the Wolfe legacyâ (Booklist).
