Triple Jeopardy —1952. ("Home to Roost," "The Cop Killer," "The Squirt and the Monkey") ALSO READ: SYNOPSIS: Could you sit in the office on West Thirty-Fifth Street and determine who among six people put a poison pellet into a pillbox that rested on a nightclub table three days before? Or what a policeman was carrying inside a folded newspaper when he entered a barber shop on the other side of town some ten hours earlier - before he was murdered? Or what sight was witnessed by a gibbering monkey in an overheated apartment two days ago? Detection never seemed more magical than in these three new novelettes by Rex Stout. Each is as full-bodied, as rich in character and incident, as the longest Rex Stout novel. Each is a gem of mystery narrative. Each finds Nero a little shrewder, a little more intolerant, and - probably - even a little fatter. Each finds Archie as indestructible and cynical as ever. Each finds the two of them exactly where they have been for quite some time now, and where every mystery fan who loves good writing, as well as good detection, hopes they will stay for a long, long while - right at the top of the detective-novel hierarchy. QUOTATIONS: "Home to Roost " "Wolfe shrugged. 'Confronted with omniscience, I bow. My motives are often obscure to myself, but you know all about them. Your advantage.'" (p. 47) " The Cop Killer " "I cannot agree that mountain climbing is merely one manifestation of man's spiritual aspirations. I think instead it is a hysterical paroxysm of his infantile vanity." (p. 99) "The Squirt and the Monkey " "I am not an outdoors man." Triple Jeopardy. Triple Jeopardy is a collection of Nero Wolfe mystery novellas by Rex Stout, published by the Viking Press in 1952. Itself collected in the omnibus volume Kings Full of Aces (Viking 1969), the book comprises three stories that first appeared in The American Magazine : "Home to Roost" (January 1952, as "Nero Wolfe and the Communist Killer") "The Cop-Killer" (February 1951, as "The Cop Killer") "The Squirt and the Monkey" (August 1951, as "See No Evil") Contents. Home to Roost. A young man is poisoned shortly after confiding to his aunt that his objectionable advocacy of the Communist party is a front for his undercover work for the FBI. The Cop-Killer. Tina and Carl Vardas, employees at the barbershop Archie Goodwin patronizes, are questioned by a policeman after a hit-and-run car accident. When the Vardases flee to the brownstone and desperately ask Archie for help, their overreaction proves to be justified. Soon the cop is found dead and Wolfe has to figure out how one killing led to the other. The Squirt and the Monkey. Archie becomes involved with gunplay at the unconventional and uncomfortably warm home of a syndicated cartoonist. Adaptations.

Another collection of 3 novellas (Stout seems to like 3 novellas in a book as there are several others in this series so far!). I especially liked the middle story ("The Cop-Killer") due to the fact that Wolfe (somewhat against his will) works for free.
