Character details


First Name
District Attorney Fletcher M.
Last Name
Anderson
Notes
District Attorney for Westchester County. Married money; a rich man with professional ambitions, and no fool. History with Wolfe goes back five years, to the Goldsmith case, when Anderson was an assistant D.A. and ungraciously deprived Wolfe of due credit. Archie regards his ethics as questionable.

Character cases:

Ch. 5 - arrives unannounced at the brownstone early one morning, wanting to speak with Wolfe (who is still in bed). He's incredulous and indignant when told that Wolfe won't see him until 11am. Ultimately, after speaking in general terms regarding Wolfe's conclusion, Anderson decides to order the exhumation and autopsy of Peter Oliver Barstow and leaves.

Ch. 8 - mentioned by Archie, recalling the day Wolfe made a dunce of him (presumably in the Fer-de-lance case) while he sat in the same chair Boyden McNair occupied.
