"It was the final round of the great Pour Amour perfume competition. All the contestants had to do was solve the last five riddles and a million dollars in prize money would be awarded. Then the contest's creator was killed and the answers stolen from his wallet. It wasn't long before Nero Wolfe found the murderer running tame in his townhouse."
" Murder meets a deadline. For once, Nero Wolfe risks his own neck instead of Archie's!
" The case involves a brilliant, ruthless killer, a million-dollar T. V. Quiz contest, five missing answers and one very embarrassed corpse.
"What's more, the T. V. Contest agency stands to lose one million dollars, and the only man who can save it is Nero Wolfe! "
