This early Nero Wolfe (third in the series, published in 1936) features charges of larceny and blackmail, a tale of the Old West, eccentric European diplomats, Wall Street businessmen, and several murders. Also, Archie ends up with seemingly most of his wardrobe requisitioned. A fun trip to E. 35...
Thoroughly engaging, with just enough detail for the observant reader to spot the villain, and the equally entertaining spectacle of Wolfe assisting the local authorities to make fools of themselves.
