Trouble at the Brownstone by Robert Goldsborough
4.0
Trouble in the Brownstone is another delightful installment in the Nero Wolfe series, and it doesn’t disappoint. As always, Archie Goodwin steals the show—his sharp wit and quick comebacks make him one of the most memorable and engaging characters in any series. His dynamic with Laun, the newspaper man and poker buddy, is a particular highlight. Their playful banter is a joy to read, and it adds a layer of humor that balances out the more serious aspects of the mystery.
The plot itself is tightly woven, with the usual blend of intriguing detective work and witty dialogue. Wolfe’s brilliance is on full display, but it’s the chemistry between Archie and the supporting characters that makes this one stand out. The pacing is just right, and the ending ties everything up nicely without feeling rushed.
While I’d give this one a solid 4.25 stars, it’s certainly one of the more enjoyable books in the series for me. It’s hard not to get lost in the world of Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin—if you’re a fan of clever mysteries and sharp-tongued characters, this one is definitely worth your time.
