Blurb: “A is for Archie... Goodwin, that is. I'm the tough, quick-witted leg man for an extraordinary, irascible, immovable, obese, orchid-fancying genius detective named Nero Wolfe. Wolfe and I never look for trouble, but from the cases we get involved in, you'd never believe it. This one I call-
Veru Venomous
It all began when a dark-eyed Italian miss tried to charm Wolfe into finding her missing brother, only to discover it took more than charm to trigger Wolfe's genius-at least a thousand dollars more. But that was a pittance compared to what was to come. When the brother turned up dead the case took on another, much wealthier corpse-a present from a monstrously ingenious murderer..
Solution of the crime would fatten Wolfe's bank account, put his detective prowess to the ultimate test, and place the entirety of his enormous person in the most dangerous position of his career!”
