Nero Wolfe and The Night of Screams

Nero Wolfe and The Night of Screams | A Nero Wolfe Story The scream that tears through the October night isn't human—at least, not entirely. It penetrates the bulletproof windows of Nero Wolfe's fortress brownstone like a blade through silk, sending five Dobermans into defensive positions and chilling Archie Goodwin to the bone. But Wolfe, ensconced in his custom-built chair with his orchids and his beer, refuses to acknowledge what his assistant knows with growing certainty: something is hunting in their neighborhood, and it's using sound as a weapon.When Dr. Imogen Blackwell arrives at their door—pale, terrified, and fleeing from her former research partner—she brings news of an invention that weaponizes fear itself. The Resonator: an acoustic device capable of inducing psychological breakdowns, hallucinations, and madness through engineered sound waves. Her partner, the brilliant but obsessed Dr. Nathaniel Quincy, has been conducting unauthorized human experiments in their Manhattan neighborhood. Four people have already vanished. Two are dead. And Dr. Blackwell knows she's next on his list.What begins as a sanctuary mission transforms into a siege. The brownstone—reinforced with bulletproof glass, steel doors, and five fiercely loyal Dobermans (Caesar, Mars, Apollo, Minerva, and Diana)—becomes ground zero in a war between rational deduction and weaponized madness. As surveillance equipment appears on neighboring rooftops, mysterious screams echo through the fog-shrouded streets, and corporate assassins test their defenses, Wolfe must dismantle a conspiracy that reaches from a lone mad scientist to a multimillion-dollar defense contractor willing to kill to protect their investment.
