A friend of Manhattan PI Nero Wolfe, who shares the reclusive investigator's passion for orchids, asks Wolfe to meet Broadway producer Roy Breckenridge, who senses a cloud of doom hovering over his current play. Wolfe guards his time obsessively but agrees to see Breckenridge in exchange for a very rare orchid . . . or two. Wolfe's legman, Archie Goodwin, is then dispatched to interview the play's key actors and production hands, but nothing suspicious presents itselfuntil Breckenridge is found murdered. Wolfe takes umbrage and decides he and Archie will solve the crime. In classic Wolfe style, each member of the cast and crew is summoned to Wolfe's brownstone, where multiple suspects emerge, including the play's bitter female lead, the leading man, and a fetching ingenue with big plans. This is the twelfth Wolfe mystery authored by Goldsborough, and, as usual, it's a virtually perfect homage to the Rex Stout originals, from the orchids to the beer to the gourmet food and, best of all, to Archie's bemused, self-deprecating narration. Comfort food for fans of classic mysteries.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
