The Missing Heiress

A Nero Wolfe Mystery

By: Robert Goldsborough

Narrated by: L. J. Ganser

The daughter of a steel magnate disappears, and Nero and Archie must forge ahead with an investigation in this new mystery from the award–winning author.

Archie Goodwin’s very good friend Lily Rowan spends much of her time—and considerable financial resources—helping women in need, from underpaid workers to mistreated wives. But at the moment she’s particularly concerned about one woman: her best friend, Maureen, a beautiful socialite who’s been incommunicado for two weeks.

After Archie helps Lily comb through Maureen’s deserted Park Avenue penthouse, and Lily contacts each of her friend’s well-heeled suitors, they still don’t know much more than when they started. Then Archie tries to track down Maureen’s estranged half-brother, but he seems to have vanished as well. Fortunately, Archie’s employer, Nero Wolfe, has a soft spot for Lily. He volunteers to step in—just in time, too, as this missing-person case soon becomes a murder case …

Enjoyable but not one of the best in the modern Nero Wolfe series.

Characterizations of Wolfe, Archie and the other regulars are top notch h as always. Plot is o.k. But not great.

Loved All!!

Loved entire content and presentation!! Great performance and I look forward to more intrigue. Thanks for continuing Nero Wolf mysteries!!! Thanks Thanks Thanks!!!!

Not up to Nero Wolfe

A nice book but he takes too many liberties on Rex Stout. Fills the void but I wish he would try to be closer to the MASTER!!!

lj ganswr is amazing

great job on the narrative. I wish he had more Nero books. they are an audible favorite

Just as good as the originals

I always dislike continuations of series (Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie, etc), but Goldsboro has done a perfect job in capturing the original tone of Wolfe and Archie. A pleasure to meet with old friends again.
