First printing, with complete number line, of this first of (now) seventeed books in the reboot series of Nero Wolfe and Archie mysteries. Tight, clean, flat, square, sharp and crisp book in pristine DJ under mylar. Owner's name.
When a maestro is murdered, Archie is flabbergasted when the gargantuan gourmet detective lifts himself out of retirement. Amid a juicy public scandal, Wolfe and Archie feast on suspects yet starve for facts—until the scanty clues finally arrange themselves like notes on a score, and Wolfe recognizes a dark melody that only a murder virtuoso could perform.
