Three at Wolfe's Door by Rex Stout

Poison a la Carte
Three at Wolfe's Door by Rex StoutOne of the stories pulled for the 90s TV series, this story was not told beat by beat but the idea was there. A group of men like to eat the finest foods and they wish to borrow Fritz for this year's occasion. It's just too bad that one of the men dies. It had to be one of the twelve actresses hired as servers but which one?
  Method Three for Murder 
Archie has quit but as he's walking out of Nero's house, there's a woman walking up. She had a bet with a friend concerning women taxi drivers but wasn't expecting a dead body to show up in the cab she was driving. Especially not the woman her husband was having an affair with.
  The Rodeo Murder
This one was hard to read because of all of the "western speak." Basically, there's a rodeo in town and one of the backers, a man who was known to be handsy with the ladies, is killed.

Read this one because of the review on Classic Mysteries podcast. It was fine but not my favorite collection.
