The Doorbell Rang by Stuart M. Kaminsky, Rex Stout
4.0

A lot of elements you might recognize from similar kinds of books, creating a familiar revenue satisfying to the mystery fan.

A big case, a famous detective and his partner working against long odds, lies, hidden things found, and a grand unveiling at the end. Everything well executed, with some wry humor thrown in. More a battle of intellect than brawn, though there's some of that in here, too.
