And the story is not so much one of detection, as of the ingenious efforts of Wolfe and the incomparable Archie Goodwin to find some conceivable starting point from which detection can be carried on. It's an odd and interesting approach; the solution is at once plausible and surprising (if not quite deductively watertight).
And the story is not primarily about detection, but rather the clever endeavors of Wolfe and the exceptional Archie Goodwin to find a plausible starting point from which detection can be pursued. It's an unusual and intriguing approach; the solution is both logical and surprising (though perhaps not entirely deductively sound).
