Description
An art hoarder s suspicious death paints a nasty picture for Nero Wolfe. No matter how fabulously he s being courted, infamously dour art hog Arthur Wordell isn t 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 museum s f te, Arthur takes a twenty-story plunge from the window of his Times Square office. Nadia thinks it s no mere coincidence. Eccentric, yes. Suicidal, no. Private investigator Nero Wolfe and his assistant, Archie Goodwin, agree. Especially after eyeballing Arthur s enemies and sycophants, including his ex-wife, a covetous curator, a troika of obsequious advisors, and an outr Greenwich Village artist anxious to see her work out of storage and on the walls of the Guggie. For Wolfe, there s a problem: Arthur didn t leave a will. Without a beneficiary not a soul in Arthur s 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, it s Wolfe. Unfortunately, this time, New York s artful investigator is, admittedly, stumped. Continuing the acclaimed series which also includes The Battered Badge, Archie Meets Nero Wolfe , Murder in the Ball Park , Archie in the Crosshairs , and Murder, Stage Left Nero Award winning author Robert Goldsborough does a masterly job with the Wolfe legacy ( Booklist ).
