Adventures Of Nero Wolfe – 1943-1951

Nero Wolfe was an immensely overweight man whose only interests in life were to eat and tend to his orchids. However, he was a detective genius solving the most baffling murders. He never left the comfort of his own home to visit the crime scene and all the legwork was done by his assistant, Archie Goodwin, who would travel around interviewing witnesses and gathering clues for Nero to study at a later date.
