Her Forbidden Knight
Stout Rex
In Stout's early and always entertaining mystery story, when Lila Williams, an innocent telegrapher at New York's upscale Lamartine Hotel, becomes enmeshed in a counterfeiting gang, the unlikely knight who comes to her rescue is one of the forgers. This exciting page-turner provides Stout fans with hints of Nero Wolfe's masterful cross-examination and charades, and police detective Barrett foreshadows the character of Inspector Cramer.
The very first novel from the classic crime writer Rex Stout, Her Forbidden Knight gives the reader a glimpse of the cunning devices and charades of the celebrated Nero Wolfe mysteries that followed in the author’s later years.
