J. Ganser. 520 $a In 1930, young Archie Goodwin comes to New York City hoping for a bit of excitement. In his third week working as a night watchman, he stops two burglars in their tracks-with a pair of hot lead slugs. Dismissed from his job for being "trigger-happy," he parlays his newfound notoriety into a job as a detective's assistant, helping honest sleuth Del Bascom solve cases like the Morningside Piano Heist, the Rive Gauche Art Gallery Swindle, and the Sumner-Hayes Burglary. But it's the kidnapping of Tommie Williamson, the son of a New York hotel magnate, that introduces Goodwin to the man who will change his life. Goodwin knows there's only one detective who can help find Tommie: Nero Wolfe, the stout genius of West Thirty-Fifth Street. Together, they'll form one of the most unlikely crime fighting duos in history-but first Goodwin must locate Tommie and prove that he deserves a place by Wolfe's side. In this witty story about the origin of a legendary partnership, Robert Goldsborough gloriously evokes the spirit of Nero Wolfe's creator, bestselling author Rex Stout, and breathes new life into his beloved characters. "Mr. Goldsborough has all of the late writer's stylistic mannerisms down pat." "Devotees of the late Rex Stout's bestsellers will be pleasantly surprised." 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 $a Goodwin, Archie $c (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Wolfe, Nero (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Private investigators $z New York $z New York $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Criminal investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Kidnapping $z New York $z New York $v Fiction. 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a Ganser, L.
