Story Synopsis:
One of the unfortunate times that Nero Wolfe
is compelled to expose the murderer of a deserving victim. Nevertheless, he is incensed that his cook's food becomes the
medium for dishing up death at a prestigious dinner, where lovely maidens in stoles serve an elite group of gourmets.
Sergeant Stebbins catches
Archie Goodwin advising several murder
suspects, but later assists in nabbing the murderer in a second murder attempt.
