Description
Wealthy clients support Nero Wolfe's penchant for fine food and prize orchids. So why has the brilliant sleuth taken a case for $4.30? Better yet, why were his last two clients murdered?Wolfe's assistant, Archie Goodwin, goes undercover as a mortician to find out. And Wolfe ponders the cryptic clues: a gray Cadillac, a mysterious woman, a pair of earrings -- shaped like spiders and dipped in gold.
