''The Mother Hunt'' is a Nero Wolfe detective novel by Rex Stout, first published by Viking Press in 1963. ==Plot introduction==
A baby is left in a young widow's vestibule, along with a note implying that her late husband is the baby's father. The widow hires Nero Wolfe to identify and locate the baby's birth mother. Throughout the Wolfe ''oeuvre'', Archie's main romantic interest is Lily Rowan, a Manhattan socialite and heiress who, after an incident in a bull pasture, nicknames Archie "Escamillo." But Stout portrays their relationship as two close friends who share an intimacy of long standing, rather than one of exclusivity. Stout makes it clear that Archie has other romances. One with Phoebe Gunther, in ''The Silent Speaker'', has an exceptionally powerful spark. In ''The Mother Hunt'', Stout for the first time makes unambiguous an affair between Archie and another major character. In a rare physical outburst, Wolfe becomes so angry and frustrated at one point that he throws his suit jacket at Archie.
