Publisher Description
Nero Wolfe, lover of fine food and prize orchids, is a genius at daring detection. But he is always on guard when it comes to women. Now murder at a fencing studio engages him and his confidential assistant, Archie Goodwin, in a dangerous duel with death. The prime suspect is a Balkan beauty who has a secret reason for wanting Wolfe to clear her -- and a double identity that may be the perfect foil for covering up a killer.

"This one was a doozy, with Wolfe back in New York where he belongs. It includes Wolfe's adopted daughter, a Croatian princess, secret papers and foreign spies. Altogether satisfactory. "

" Introduction of Nero's daughter, I found this book to be a little more confusing than some of his other stories. But still quite enjoyable. "

" I will be reading more Rex Stout. "

" very fun. I really enjoyed the style of this book, and will definitely need to read some more Rex Stout. I love all the super-hip 1930's slang :) "

" Rex Stout always delivers. A wonderfully scripted tale about murder and intrigue. "

" Nero Wolfe. Somewhat odd one with a one time appearance of Wolfe's daughter. "

" I have read several Rex Stout mysteries! A modern day Sherlock Holmes. Contains humor and suspense. Easy reads. "
— Melissa, 8/28/2008 -
" I guess maybe now that I'm almost finished with Christie, I'm going to make my way through Stout. Or, at least the ones that are readily available. This one, in particular, is okay, but no great shakes. Totally sufficient commute reading, but nothing that kept me up at night. "
