A collection of three novellas featuring Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin. After awhile, there’s not really much one can say about Stout’s mysteries. They are always well done–I remember reading someone saying that Rex Stout never wrote a bad sentence, and I have yet to prove that false. But there really isn’t much here that distinguishes these novellas from any of the other collections.
