Abibliofob's Reviews > The Missing Heiress

I have loved Nero Wolfe since the early 80s and have enjoyed the takeover by Robert Goldsborough immensely. The Missing Heiress is the 17th book in his version of the adventures in the brownstone on the 35th street. It's not the best in the series but it is still great fun reading. I found this book lacking some of the trademark banter and linguistic fun usually found in a Wolfe story. But we get almost all the characters we love in this story. Archie, Saul, Lily, Fritz, Lon and Cramer. The last couple of books has been great but I didn't feel the right edge to this one but it is a Nero Wolfe story and I will always love one of those.
