Wolfe Tales brings to life stories of Nero Wolfe, Archie Goodwin and Company in present-day New York City: what they are up to, how they live, and what they're thinking, saying and doing. These immortal characters are alive and well in their world, now open to readers yearning to visit them again. Chef Fritz Brenner tells his backstory. Nero and Archie befriend a man searching for the hidden lives of his father and mother. What is the present-day condition of the Old Brownstone? Mr. Parker, attorney extraordinary, confronts a mysterious illness with sinister undertones. Archie and Saul become involved in New York State's dirty politics. The nephew of a cherished former client seeks help in dealing with the troublesome return of a companion. Lon Cohen joins Nero and Archie at the dinner table for spirited conversation and fabulous food. Nero and Archie debate words and their significance in today's society. Inspector Cramer and Sergeant Stebbins enlist Nero and Archie to hunt a killer jewel thief in the midst of a culinary wonderland. Archie renews an acquaintance with death. A dozen stories, plus an introductory essay, await the dedicated followers of America's greatest, and largest, detective in this new collection of pastiches, Wolfe Tales.
