Overview

When a millionaire businessman hires Nero Wolfe to investigate his daughter's boyfriend, hoping to find that he's a member of the Communist Party, Wolfe suspects it's nothing more than an overprotective father. But after a powerful gangland boss "advises" him to drop the matter -- and machine-gun fire rips into his beloved orchids -- Wolfe realizes it's much more than a father's overactive imagination. And when the boyfriend turns up dead, leaving Archie Goodwin as the prime suspect, Wolfe realizes he must act fast to prevent another murder -- his own.
