An art hoarders suspicious death paints a nasty picture for Nero Wolfe.No matter how fabulously hes being courted, infamously dour art hog Arthur Wordell isnt keen on favoring the new Guggenheim Museum with his extensive collection. Even at the urging of his beloved daughter, Nadia. Then, the night after the museums fte, Arthur takes a twentystory plunge from the window of his Times Square office. Nadia thinks its no mere coincidence.Eccentric, yes. Suicidal, no. Private investigator Nero Wolfe and his assistant, Archie Goodwin, agree. Especially after eyeballing Arthurs enemies and sycophants, including his exwife, a covetous curator, a troika of obsequious advisors, and an outr Greenwich Village artist anxious to see her work out of storage and on the walls of the Guggie.For Wolfe, theres a problem: Arthur didnt leave a will. Without a beneficiary not a soul in Arthurs circle is set to benefit from his death. Nor do they show any customary indication of guilt. If anybody can solve a seemingly unsolvable masterpiece of murder, its Wolfe. Unfortunately, this time, New Yorks artful investigator is, admittedly, stumped.Continuing the acclaimed serieswhich also includes The Battered Badge, Archie Meets Nero Wolfe, Murder in the Ball Park, Archie in the Crosshairs, and Murder, Stage LeftNero Awardwinning author Robert Goldsborough does a masterly job with the Wolfe legacy (Booklist).

This was an okay entry in the Nero Wolfe series. The art world backdrop was interesting, but I found some parts dragged on a bit. Still, Wolfe’s character never disappoints!

Disappointed with the ending
I’m a fan of the series, but I found the conclusion of this book pretty underwhelming. The buildup was great, but it fizzled out at the end. Hoping the next one is better!

Intriguing plot with classic Wolfe charm
I really enjoyed 'Death of an Art Collector'! The mystery had me guessing until the end, and I loved the usual wit and intelligence of Nero Wolfe. If you’re into clever whodunits, you’ll appreciate this installment in the series.

Not as strong as previous mysteries
I was a bit let down by this one. The story felt a little convoluted, and I struggled to keep track of some characters. Still, it’s Nero Wolfe, so it had its moments.

Loved the art references!
As an art lover, I found this book fascinating. The insights into the art collecting world were captivating. Wolfe's investigations are always enjoyable, and this one delivered some real twists!
