SynopsisWhen a millionaire businessman hires Nero Wolfe to probe the background of his daughter's boyfriend, it seems like just another case of an overprotective father. But when a powerful gangland boss "counsels" the detective to drop the matter, Wolfe receives a warning- a burst of machine-gun fire through the windows of his orchid room. Then the lawyer boyfriend turns up dead, leaving Archie the number one suspect. Throw in drugged drinks, two man-killing debutantes, and officials of a highly un-American party and Wolfe finds himself involved in a case where he must quickly solve one murder to prevent another- his own. Introduction by William G. Tapply "It is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery.

Together, Stout and Wolfe have entertained-and puzzled-millions of mystery fans around the world.
