Archie Goodwin leaves Manhattan for the Midwest to find out who put a bullet into a banker.
Archie Goodwinโs aunt Edna is about to lure him away from his work at Nero Wolfeโs New York brownstone. After a phone call, he heads off to Ohio, where the president of Farmerโs State Bank and Trust, an elderly widower, has died in an apparent suicide. But Archieโs aunt has expressed nagging suspicionsโwhich only grow stronger when someone takes a shot at a local reporter who wrote about the case.
It wouldnโt be a small town without some gossip, and Archie soon hears the whispers: romantic intrigues, a possible paternity case, a ruined business. While reconnecting with his aging motherโand fending off his nagging auntโArchie tries to untangle a web of grudges, scandals, and murder.
From Nero Award winner Robert Goldsborough, this is a brand-new novel in the series created by Rex Stout, starring one of the worldโs most beloved detectives and his equally engaging sidekick.
Archie Goes Home is the 15th book in the Nero Wolfe Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
