A professor's death lures the reclusive detective and his sidekick
to a bucolic crime scene: "Goldsborough does a masterly job with
the Wolfe legacy" (Booklist). An academic so conservative he
thought Ronald Reagan was a pinko, Hale Markham rules Prescott
University like an intellectual tyrant-until the morning he's found
dead at the bottom of one of Prescott's famously beautiful ravines.
Every liberal on campus hated the crotchety old crank, but which
one is responsible for giving Markham his final push to the right?
The case so intrigues the incomparable, reclusive master detective
Nero Wolfe that he takes the unusual step of leaving the confines
of his home. With man of action Archie Goodwin at his side, Wolfe
examines jealous professors, a fanatical assistant, and a
university president with an ego that-like the school itself-will
not stop growing. Though they're far from the city, Wolfe and
Goodwin will find that no back alley is as dangerous as the shadowy
corridors of the Ivy League.
