Murder in E Minor is a 1986 Nero Wolfe novel written by Robert Goldsborough. The action takes place in New York City, primarily New York County, better known as Manhattan.

Goldsborough's first Wolfe novel extends a long string of Rex Stout Nero Wolfe stories (both novels and shorter novella-length stories) stretching back 40 years. Goldsborough has adopted Stout's premises very closely[1] and received a Nero Award from The Wolfe Pack for his effort.[2] Characterization is generally successful[1] as Goldsborough's characters are primarily defined by Rex Stout's ideas.[2]
