A fast-paced mystery set in pre-WWII New York City, Over My Dead Body gives us a little more of Nero Wolfe's History and a glimpse of international intrigue.  The plot is ignited when a pretty young immigrant is accused of stealing diamonds from a client at the fencing and dance school at which she teaches both.  She turns to Nero, pulling on a very old tie to get his immense presence moving.  Very enjoyable, particularly the scene in which Archie, like all good antifa, punches a Nazi in the eye.
