Nero Wolfe and The Penthouse Puzzle

Описание: Nero Wolfe and The Penthouse Puzzle | A Nero Wolfe Classic

Twenty-eight floors above Manhattan, a man lies dead in his locked penthouse. The police call it suicide. One woman knows it's murder. And only Nero Wolfe can prove the impossible actually happened.
When Beatrice Ashford arrives at the fortified brownstone on West 35th Street, she brings with her the perfect locked-room mystery: her brother-in-law, Desmond Ashford, found dead in his penthouse apartment with a gun in his hand, a bullet in his brain, and every entrance sealed from the inside.
The private elevator—locked in the lobby all night.
The apartment door—bolted with a chain that could only be engaged from within.
The windows—sealed tight, twenty-eight floors above Fifth Avenue with no fire escape, no balcony, no way in or out.
The police see suicide. Beatrice sees murder. And she's willing to pay fifty thousand dollars to prove it.
As Archie Goodwin climbs into the rarefied world of Manhattan penthouses—where elevator operators wear white gloves and doormen remember every face—he discovers that Desmond Ashford was a man who collected enemies the way other men collect rare books. A fired business manager with a grudge. A rival developer who wanted his company. An ex-wife who despised him. Three ambitious vice presidents who wanted his job. And a daughter who inherited everything when he died.
Eight suspects. Eight motives. And one impossible crime.
