We discuss chapters 1-6 of Too Many Cooks by Rex Stout. Our detective Nero Wolfe and his trusty aide, Archie Goodwin, are invited to Kanawha Spa by some of the world’s greatest chefs, but their food extravaganza is abruptly interrupted, when the one chef that everyone was planning to kill is murdered. Will a reluctant Wolfe even try to solve the crime? We also spoke with cozy-crime author Lucy Burdette on the fine art of food-related crime and her Key West series.
