Publisher's Summary

Mystery fans will devour this entry into the classic wisecracking Nero Wolfe series, in which Wolfe must track down a dangerous gunman - or risk losing his right-hand man.

Archie Goodwin is chipper as he strolls home from his weekly poker game, money in his pocket and a smile on his lips. He has just reached Nero Wolfe’s stately brownstone on West 35th Street when a sedan whips around the corner and two gunshots ring out, nearly hitting Goodwin. It is a warning, and the message is clear: The next bullet will not miss.

Rotund investigator Nero Wolfe has made more than his fair share of enemies over the years, and it seems one of them has decided to strike, targeting Wolfe’s indefatigable assistant. Some might run for cover, but Archie Goodwin is not the type. With the help of Wolfe’s brainpower, Goodwin will find the man who wants him dead - unless the killer gets to Goodwin first.

Nero Award-winning author Robert Goldsborough continues the brilliant work of Rex Stout in this classic mystery series. According to Publishers Weekly, “Goldsborough cleverly captures the tone and language of the originals. Rex Stout fans can only hope he has no plans to wind up the series soon”.

Archie in the Crosshairs a Nero Wolfe mystery

I have seen several Nero Wolf tv series and have read several books. Archie Is one of my favourite characters. This is one of the best stories I have experienced. Characters are great and come across well with good acting which must be difficult in an auto release. Love the endings in the Nero Wolf style. Always explains in detail “who done it”

Swiss French!

I’ve always enjoyed Rex Stout’s Nero Wolfe. Robert Goldsborough is doing him proud. I am disappointed with Mr. Gander’s version of Fritz. The accent is more European than French.
The storyline is very good. It kept my interest even though I figured out the murderer well before the end.
I look forward to listening to more in the series.
