Her niece Noreen has been running around with Sparky Linville, a club-hopping bad boy who's the terror of Manhattan nightlife, and the last time she went out with him, Noreen wasn't herself when she came home. All she would tell her aunt was that she had been assaulted. Springing into action, Goodwin waits for Linville outside of Morgana's, a chrome-and-glass palace that sits like a wart on Second Avenue. They nearly come to blows, but Linville's bodyguard intervenes, and Goodwin retreats to plan his next move. In the morning, Linville is dead, and Goodwin is the chief suspect. For years he has helped rotund genius Nero Wolfe out of jams, and now it's time for the master detective to return the favor.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Fans of that fat genius, Nero Wolfe, and his indomitable sidekick, Archie Goodwin, will be gratified by this stylish revival." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> "Robert Goldsborough brings Nero Wolfe, late of Rex Stout, gloriously back to life." --<i>Chicago</i> "Goldsborough does a masterly job with the Wolfe legacy." --<i>Booklist</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Robert Goldsborough (b. 1937) is an American author best known for continuing Rex Stout's famous Nero Wolfe series.
