"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 takes on a case from his youngest-client-ever for a fee of $4.30, and pursues a mysterious woman wearing golden spider earrings. First published in print in 1953, this is considered one of Rex Stout’s All Time Best.

The Golden Spiders highlights one of Nero Wolfe's most challenging detective assignments. His client is a 12-year-old boy who is murdered just days after trying to recruit Wolfe to help him solve a possible crime. Wolfe and his assistant, Archie Goodwin, take on the case that involves two more murders, a blackmail racket, and golden spider earrings.

Rex Stout (1886-1975) is dubbed the Grand Old Man of American Crime Fiction. During his lifetime, he published 72 Nero Wolfe mysteries; ten years after his death, a 73rd Nero Wolfe was discovered and published.

Michael Prichard has read over 330 audiobooks including bestsellers by Clive Cussler, John Irving and Tom Clancy. SmartMoney Magazine lists him as one of the Top Ten Golden Voices.
