Nero Wolfe and The Cruise To Havana

Описание: Nero Wolfe and The Cruise To Havana | A Nero Wolfe Story

When maritime investigator Harry Morrison is found dead in his Miami hotel room—an apparent suicide just hours before boarding a Caribbean cruise—his partner suspects murder and hires America's most brilliant detective to find the truth.

Nero Wolfe, the legendary orchid-loving sleuth who rarely leaves his New York brownstone, must overcome his dread of travel to board the luxury liner Celestina. Accompanied by his wisecracking assistant Archie Goodwin, Wolfe discovers that Morrison's death is connected to a 60-year-old maritime mystery: the sinking of the Havana Crown in 1959, along with forty million dollars in industrial diamonds destined for Castro's Cuba.
The Celestina's passenger list reads like a roster of suspects, each connected to the original tragedy: the son of the ship's captain, relatives of the drowned diamond merchant, a descendant of the insurance investigator, and a beautiful woman who claims to be researching her family history. When bodies start dropping faster than anchor chains, Wolfe realizes someone aboard is killing to protect an explosive secret.
As the ship sails through tropical waters, Wolfe and Archie must navigate through six decades of lies to uncover a stunning truth: the diamonds never went down with the Havana Crown. They've been hidden aboard the Celestina all along, waiting in a secret compartment for someone clever—or deadly—enough to find them.

With his trademark brilliance and Archie's street smarts, Wolfe must identify a killer who's been playing a longer game than anyone imagined, before the Celestina becomes a floating morgue. The solution lies buried in maritime records, family secrets, and the testimony of a woman who's been living a lie for sixty years.

From the acclaimed author comes a classic locked-room mystery with a nautical twist, where the golden age of detection meets modern murder on the high seas. The Havana Crown Affair proves that some treasures are worth killing for—and some secrets refuse to stay buried at sea.
"A brilliantly plotted mystery that would make Rex Stout proud. The perfect blend of classic detection and contemporary thrills."
