Murder By The Book, Rex Stout , ISBN 1572705361
Our Price $44.00, Audio Book, weight 190 grams, 6 CDS, Stock
A Nero Wolfe Mystery, read by Michael Prichard. Complete and unabridged. An orchid-growing, gourmandizing, demanding genius, Wolfe solves this case with the able assistance of his legman, Archie Goodwin, who narrates with his usual wry humour.
   Manhattan Police Inspector Cramer solicits Wolfe's help insolving the suspicious death of a law office clerk who has been fished out of the Hudson River. His probably homicide-causing offense? Submitting a manuscript for publication! Only two other people have read it and they, too, are suddenly found dead. Archie executes a plot to trap the killer. Bit it's Wolfe who successfully reveals the motivations and solves the complex puzzle.
