Few know that one of America’s most iconic fictional detectives, Nero Wolfe, was—according to his creator Rex Stout—born in Montenegro. Featured in a beloved detective series running from 1934 to 1975, Wolfe is depicted as a brilliant and eccentric investigator who lives a reclusive life in a brownstone in New York, surrounded by books, orchids, and an obsession with gourmet food. He rarely leaves his home—unless justice demands it.
