Each month the Black Widowers, an urbane club of cerebral adventurers, meet at the Milano Restaurant for dinner. And each month a single guest is invited and subjected to a genial but intense grilling on the meaning of his existence.

When the Black Widowers are stumped (as invariably happens), they turn to their faithful waiter Henry, who serves up perfectly grilled salmon and devilishly clever answers with equal aplomb.

Another great Black Widowers book!
This book is as great as the ones that preceded it! Once again, Henry is there to solve the puzzles and save the show. Definitely a must read for fans of the Black Widowers series.
