Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1940 mystery novel by Rex Stout, and seventh in the Nero Wolfe series.Nero Wolfe's bank balance is looking pretty healthy for once, so he's not looking for work. And he's definitely not looking for work from Carla Lovchen, an imperious young fencing instructor and illegal immigrant from Montenegro, who wants Wolfe to clear her friend of a wrongful accusation of theft. But things get complicated when Carla's friend — Neya Tormic, a fellow instructor and immigrant — claims to be Wolfe's long-lost daughter, whom he adopted but lost contact with during the political chaos following World War One. The threat of scandal would be enough to prompt Wolfe into action, but during her visit Carla also secreted a letter inside one of Wolfe's books, concerning mysterious negotiations over Yugoslavian forestry rights. This leads Wolfe and Archie Goodwin into a tangled affair of political intrigue, greedy bankers, ruthless agents and, of course, murder...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A Nero Wolfe Mystery adapted Over My Dead Body in two parts as its Season 1 finale. | |

Acrofatic: At the end, Wolfe demonstrates when he is attacked by a psychotically furious Neya, by smashing her wrist and skull with a pair of beer bottles. His attacker presumably didn't see it coming. | |

Adopted into Royalty | |
| Over My Dead Body / int_8e1db422 | comment |
Adopted into Royalty: Downplayed and implied by the backstory; after losing contact with Wolfe, Wolfe's daughter appears to have been adopted by a servant of royalty, thus making her more Adopted into Service of Royalty. She's still become a close confidant of the royal in question, however. Close enough that the royal has learned of her connection to Nero Wolfe and has decided to try and exploit it if necessary. | |
