Rex Stout - Nero Wolfe 03

Read Rex Stout - Nero Wolfe 03 Storyline:

Review"The Rubber Band by Rex Stout is a complete and unabridged mystery starring Nero Wolfe and his faithful sidekick, Archie Goodwin. Wolfe, who died in 1975 at age 89, wrote stories that hold up remarkably well. In this, which involves the American West and the British nobility, we have Wolfe's tongue-in-cheek exercise program developed to comply with his physician's edict that he must lose weight: dart throwing. Michael Prichard, who has pretty much become the voice of Archie Goodwin, reads. Recently, he was named by Smart Money magazine as one of audio's "Top 10 Golden Voices." -- The Arizona Daily Star"It is always a treat to [hear] a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore." -- The New York Times Book Review"Nero Wolfe, the fat detective of Rex Stout's novels, towers over his rivals...he is an exceptional character creation." -- The New Yorker"Rex Stout...raised detective fiction to the level of art. He gave us genius of at least two kinds, and a strong realist voice that was shot through with hope." -- Walter MosleyProduct DescriptionWhat do a Wild West lynching and a respected English nobleman have in common? On the surface, absolutely nothing. But when a young woman hires his services, it becomes Nero Wolfe’s job to look deeper and find the connection. A forty-year-old pact, a five-thousand-mile search, and a million-dollar murder are all linked to an international scandal that could rebound on the great detective and his partner, Archie, with fatal abruptness.
