The latest adventures of the famous orchid-growing beer-drinking, self-proclaimed genius, Nero Wolfe, are more exciting, more violent than ever before. This new, full-length mystery novel not only gives Nero full play for all his egocentricities but also provides Archie with a satisfying number of opportunities to risk his neck, to fall into what he never calls love, and to be baffled simultaneously by an exceptionally well-concealed murderer and an infuriatingly noncommittal Nero. 

      Probably never before has the reader of a detective story been given quite so full an array of facts; never has the murderer been at the same time so clearly pointed out and yet so bafflingly concealed. We suspect that a lot of people who will presently be talking about The Second Confession will be opening the conversation with some such praise as "Not since I read Agatha Christie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. . ."

A fanatic millionaire, a lawless politician, and a gangland boss all wanted Nero Wolfe to do things their way.  Money was no object - - - neither was life or death . . . .
