Wolfe and Archie were both at their best with their banter. Some of the plot was a little convoluted, but that made it fun. Definitely an interesting cast of characters. The ending did seem to come out of nowhere, but I didn't mind. The writing was a product of it's time at points, particularly with regards to women. This has long been one of my favorite books in the Nero Wolfe/Archie Goodwin series, though for a long time I wouldn't re-read it because of A Thing that happens. A few years ago I decided that was silly and re-read it. The Thing is still very ... Thing-y, but in my (ahem) maturity I really appreciate the way author Rex Stout handles the situation and the fallout from it in ways that serve the story without striking even a single false note with our beloved characters. So it went back on the re-read list, and I re-read it recently. It's still awfully good, in every sense of the phrase. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Three women have been strangled - and Archie feels responsible. One of the women was expecting a big birthday present, an $8 million inheritance; she just had to live until June 30 to receive it. Unfortunately, she didn't make the date. First published in 1952, "Prisoner's base" sees Archie's boss, detective Nero Wolfe, bring together all the pieces to solve the puzzle.
