Nero Wolfe and sidekick Archie Goodwin tackle the powerful high-stakes world of mass-media evangelism as they try to protect one of America’s most beloved preachers.

A member of the Tabernacle of the Silver Spire went to Wolfe for help because some threatening notes aimed at Barney Bay (the church’s charismatic leader) had been discovered each time on one of the collection pouches for 6 consecutive Sundays but Wolfe refused the case. So Archie recommended Fred Durkin… after a while, the most unlikable of the church’s Circle of Faith advisors and a Royal pain was shot twice with Durkin’s gun and Fred Durkin was arrested for his murder. Before the murder, Durkin told the Circle that one of them sent the threatening notes and that caused an uproar and a heated argument ensued between Durkin and the contentious victim. Wolfe and Archie have no paying client here and Wolfe footed Durkin’s bond plus they had to work fast to extricate Durkin before Pastor Royal Mead’s murder goes to trial… then Wolfe had a relapse that had everyone worried including the reader because of the excruciating wait and that he might not be able to solve this case, the anomaly seldom happens but it might just be this one,
