Summary
This classic detective story introduces the famous sleuth Nick Charles and his wife Nora. Nick's former client, the rail-thin inventor Clyde Miller Wynant, disappears and his secretary is found shot dead in her home. Everyone from Clyde's ex-wife Mimi (now… married to Christian Jorgensen, who may or may not be crooked) to a visibly upset armed intruder to, via his lawyer, Clyde himself expects that Nick will take on the case. His denials being of no avail, he gives in to the inevitable and begins investigating. 1972, c1934.
