SYNOPSIS
"Nero Wolfe towers over his rivals...he is an exceptional character creation." —New Yorker
A grand master of the form, Rex Stout is one of America’s greatest mystery writers, and his literary creation Nero Wolfe is one of fiction’s greatest detectives. Here, in this special double edition, the arrogant, gourmandizing, sedentary sleuth and his trusty man-about-town, Archie Goodwin, solve two of their most bizarre cases.
Some Buried Caesar
A prize bull destined for the barbecue is found pawing the corpse of a late restaurateur. Wolfe is certain that Hickory Caesar Grindon, the soon-to-be-beefsteak bull, isn’t the murderer. But who among a veritable stampede of suspects—including a young woman who’s caught Archie’s eye—turned the tables on Hickory’s would-be butcher? It’s a crime that wins a blue ribbon for sheer audacity—and Nero Wolfe is the one detective audacious enough to solve it.
The Golden Spiders
A twelve-year-old boy shows up at Wolfe’s brownstone with an incredible story. Soon the great detective finds himself hired for the grand sum of $4.30 and faced with the question of why the last two people to hire him were murdered. To keep it from becoming three, Wolfe must discover the unlikely connection between a gray Cadillac, a mysterious woman, and a pair of earrings shaped like spiders dipped in gold.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Rex Stout
Rex Stout nasceu a 1 de dezembro de 1886 na cidade americana de Noblesville, Indiana. Após uma breve passagem pela Universidade do Kansas, alista-se na Marinha em 1906 e durante dois anos serve a bordo do iate Mayflower, do Presidente Roosevelt, como subtenente. Em 1916 cria um sistema bancário escolar que seria implementado em mais de quatrocentos estabelecimentos de ensino e que lhe garantiu lucros confortáveis, mas em 1927 abandona os negócios e passa a dedicar-se inteiramente à escrita. Publica três romances, que obtiveram críticas favoráveis, mas é com a sua primeira obra policial que alcança o reconhecimento do grande público: Picada Mortal surgiu em 1934 e com ela surgiu a personagem de Nero Wolfe, detetive excêntrico, amante de boa comida e de belas orquídeas, que, juntamente com o jovem assistente Archie Goodwin, viria a protagonizar dezenas de histórias. Em 1959, Rex Stout recebeu a distinção de Grande Mestre pela Mystery Writers of America. Morreu a 27 de outubro de 1975, em Danbury, no Connecticut, cerca de um mês após a publicação do seu último romance, Um Caso Familiar.
