About Might As Well Be Dead
“It is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore.”—The New York Times Book Review Eleven years ago, wealthy Nebraska businessman James Herold gave his only son, Paul, a very raw deal.
Now he wants Nero Wolfe to track Paul down so that he can make amends. But what if the young man doesn’t want to be found . .
and what if he’s the same P. H. who’s currently on trial for cold-blooded murder?
It’s a case that will draw the great detective and his dedicated sidekick into a sticky web of deceit, one that will tax their resources to the utmost, and even cost them one of their own.
