Nero Wolfe and The Hitman's Christmas Job

Nero Wolfe and The Hitman's Christmas Job | A Nero Wolfe Story

On the morning of December 24th, a mysterious photograph arrives at West 35th Street—a corpse in the snow, staged with a candy cane and today's newspaper. Nero Wolfe dismisses it as melodrama. Archie Goodwin isn't so sure.
By noon, the photo proves prophetic. Toy magnate Harold Mortensen lies dead at a children's charity gala, shot by a killer in a Santa suit who vanishes into the winter storm. His widow brings a chilling warning: this is the work of "Nicholas," a legendary contract killer who strikes only on Christmas, completing jobs ordered years in advance.
As the snow falls and the body count threatens to rise, Wolfe and Archie uncover a twenty-year-old betrayal among four business partners who called themselves "The Christmas Club." Three remain alive—but not for long. The killer has promised four deaths before midnight, and he's keeping score with candy canes and vintage snow globes.
