Archie Goodwin's Office – Nero Wolfe Speaking
It’s 1978. Nero Wolfe, New York’s 300-pound, orchid-loving, epicurean genius detective who fought crime from the seat of his over-sized chair for more than three decades has now been dead for two years. In America, it’s a time of change: Viet Nam, Watergate, free love, smallpox, the reserve clause, and cheap oil are history.
Wolfe’s long-suffering assistant, Archie Goodwin, and New York’s top operative, Saul Panzer, have joined forces at the brownstone on 35th Street, Wolfe’s posthumous, final deduction: The Goodwin Panzer Agency.
In a post-Wolfe dystopia-with-a-sense-of-humor, Archie, Saul, Fritz, and Cramer find themselves in the crosshairs of a worldwide criminal cartel. People are changing names, changing jobs, and changing sides. Aided and abetted by Roy Cohn, Richard Wragg, Dorothy Bruce, and the Dutch police, will Saul and Archie live up to Wolfe’s legacy?
Did Wolfe die of natural causes?
If not who pulled the trigger?
For the answers to these and other burning questions of the decade, Archie Goodwin’s Office, Nero Wolfe Speaking is rife with answers and, sometimes, more questions.
