Based on the Nero Wolfe series—one of the longest running,
critically acclaimed, and bestselling series in the crime
fiction world—a collection of Nero Wolfe–inspired crime
stories from one of the most prominent crime writers of his era.
From 1934 until his death in 1976, Rex Stout entertained the
world with the exploits of Nero Wolfe—the eccentric,
organ-breeding detective genius—as related by Archie
Goodwin, his irreverent legman. Nearly Nero is an
affectionate, tongue-in-cheek homage to Stout’s greatest
creation.
Claudius Lyon is a fanatic admirer of Wolfe. He has
retrofitted himself and his townhouse after Wolfe’s and has
hired a man named Arnie Woodbine to serve as his Archie
Goodwin. However, Lyon’s naiveté and Woodbine’s larcenous
nature constantly put them in jeopardy—more than Wolfe and
Goodwin ever faced.
Somehow the imitator manages to find a solution from every
problem. But can he and his assistant keep up this pretense
for long?
