TOO MANY CLIENTS.
New York: The Viking Press, 1960. Octavo, cloth. First edition. A Nero Wolfe mystery novel. "Good treatment of the love-nest theme, integral as well as central, which implies good characterization.

The sole reservation to be made is that the villain is not well enough concealed, perhaps because he is so well cast." - Barzun & Taylor, A Catalogue of Crime (1989), 3092. Hubin, pp. 777-778.
