RED BOX, THE

Rating:
Summary: Wolfe Melodrama
Review: An early Wolfe where Stout still hasn't quite got his main character right (I mean Archie Goodwin, not Wolfe). Like its immediate predecessor, The Rubber Band, the story is highly dramatic and over-written compared with later Wolfes. But it's got pace and a memorable baddie.

Rating:
Summary: One of the best
Review: Stout in his prime with Archie and Nero grooved into their characters, very fast pacing and one of the best plots in the series.
