Overview

A doxy — a prostitute or paramour — is found dead, and one of Nero Wolfe's longtime acquaintances stands accused. Wolfe reluctantly lays out bait in the form of a showgirl — whose talents may equal his own.

With a rich man footing the bills and a handsome lover on the side, Isabel Kerr was taken care of well. When someone takes care of her in a more final sense, her murder is pinned on a detective friend of Nero Wolfe's. Agreeing to help clear his buddy's name, Wolfe winds up entertaining a party of fools and lovers connected with the doxy's death. Reissue.
