Nero Wolfe's character often walks the line between right and wrong, which makes me wonder how much of that was planned versus evolving during writing.

The ending tied things up neatly, but I was left wondering if some of the clues were too conveniently resolved. What did others think about the pacing of the finale?

The atmosphere of the story feels so specific — I wonder what led the author to choose this particular backdrop and era for the mystery.
