Patience is the only daughter of the rightful Heptarch, but she, like her father, serves the usurper who has destroyed her family. But the time for prudence has passed, and that which has slept has awakened. And Patience must journey to the heartsoul of the planet to confront her destiny--and the world's.
This latest entry in the estimable Nero Wolfe audio canon is a veritable time machine, transporting listeners back not only to the upscale New York City of the 1950s, but also to an era when wit and literacy flourished in the mystery genre. Prichard again proves that he is the perfect Archie Goodwin, surely the most interesting sidekick of them all the voice of Stout's most liberal instincts as well as a shrewd detective in his own right.
