Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
A murder before a studio audience on a radio broadcast means a high-profile case and a $20,000 paycheck, both important to Nero Wolfe, who needs to boost his bank account quickly to pay for his luxurious living. Reading in Archie Goodwin's first-person voice, Michael Prichard gives the narration a touch of noir tone but keeps the emphasis on Rex Stout's witty dialogue as the wise-guy sidekick. His Nero Wolfe is suitably commanding as he belittles and deceives to get the truth from a gallery of dishonest suspects. Fans also will want to hear IN THE BEST FAMILIES, which resolves the battle with crime boss Arnold Zeck that is set up here.

Book Description
Radio talk show host Madeline Fraser’s fear of dead air becomes literal when a guest keels over after drinking a glass of her sponsor’s beverage. Enter Nero Wolfe and his assistant, Archie. Nero lends his considerable sleuthing skills to the case but soon discovers that everyone connected to the case is lying about it. What's more, the portly private eye soon learns that the secret worth lying about only hides another worth killing for. Michael Prichard’s dramatic reading brings this vintage 1948 whodunit to life. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
