Only then will Wolfe be ready to throw his weight into a second thorny case, involving a rich society widow bedeviled by poison-pen letters-and a poisonous plot as black as Wolfe's orchids . . . with roots that are even more twisted.Introduction by Lawrence BlockIt is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery.
