In Rex Stout’s “The Golden Spiders,” a petty snit over dinner preparations lead brilliant, high-priced detective Nero Wolfe and his irreverent legman Archie Goodwin to admitting a twelve-year-old boy for a consultation on a case involving a mysterious woman wearing gold spider earrings.

Before long, a $4.30 retainer and two brutal deaths that hit close to home for Wolfe and Goodwin involve them in one of their darkest, most personal cases, involving undocumented immigrants, extortion, corruption and murder. Both are pushed outside their comfort zones, as they resort to extreme tactics to solve the case.

Stout creates a riveting page-turner with familiar individuals in new territory, and unique characters that jump off the page; even the murder victims are far more than mere plot devices. Also, I’m sold on any Nero Wolfe mystery that features his other operatives Saul Panzer, Fred Durkin and Orrie Cather. (I even found out “Orrie” is short for “Orvald.”)

I always end up hungry after reading a Rex Stout novel; here’s a prime example: “a farmer who lives up near Brewster shoots eighteen or twenty starlings, puts them in a bag, and gets in his car and drives to New York. It is understood that they are to be delivered to our door within two hours after they were winged. Fritz dresses them and sprinkles them with salt, and, at the proper moment, brushes them with melted butter, wraps them in sage leaves, grills them, and arranges them on a platter of hot polenta, which is thick porridge of fine-ground yellow cornmeal with butter, grated cheese, and salt and pepper.”

One of these days, I’m buying that Nero Wolfe cookbook.

Although I’ve already seen dramatizations of this novel, especially the A&E movie adaptation, it’s still one of my favorite Stout novels ever. Five stars.

Favorite word from this Stout novel: “replevy.”

(Two of the book covers pictured are a Hebrew edition from Israel and a Singhalese edition from 1961.)

A Few Quick Questions With...Like the Wolfe Podcast (and a little bit of an intro to it) @LikeWolfe #NeroWolfe #ArchieGoodwin #RexStout #likewolfe

Most of what I’ve written about Nero Wolfe/Archie Goodwin and their author Rex Stout predates this blog, but I’ve not hid the fact that I’m a near-rabid fan, and will take any excuse to mention them. So imagine my excitement when a few weeks ago, someone joined one of the fan groups on Facebook and mentioned he had a podcast working through the Corpus.

Like the Wolfeis working their way, book by…
