"It is always a treat to [hear] a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore." --The New York Times Book Review

Imagine yourself as a talk show host whose guest takes a drink of soda, on-air, and immediately dies. Sounds like a broadcaster's nightmare come true! Enter Nero Wolfe. He agrees to take the case but each suspect tells uniform lies. Just when there seem to be no further clues, Wolfe devises strategies that interweave all the characters in complicity and capital crime.

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.
