Synopsis: When a powerful government official,scheduled to speak to a group of millionaires, turns up dead, it is an event worthy of the notice of the great Nero Wolfe.

While the Business world clamors for a solution, Nero Wolfe patiently lays a trap that wil net him a killer worth his weight in gold..
