Gripping Cozy Murder Mystery! Elizabeth Green, a Professor of Poisons at the University of Cambridge, England, has all the answers on a murder case, but will anyone listen to her before the next person is killed? Praise for Charlot King and her new cosy murder mystery: ?If you love Darwin College Cambridge & murder mystery books Alumna @queen... more »charlot novel Poison is made for you!? Darwin College, Cambridge. @DarwinCollege Twitter ?Murder in Cambridge? Check out the new novel by local author @queencharlot...a truly gripping read!? Cambridge Literary Festival, @camlitfest Twitter Hugely popular local Cambridge author makes historic city in England leap off the page with POISON, this gripping debut, the first in the Cambridge Murder Mystery Series. Join the fast growing number of readers of POISON, and curl up with this cosy English crime story. If you enjoy intelligent storytelling, strong and vulnerable characters and twists and turns of plot, then you?ll love this compelling whodunnit. Fans of Agatha Christie?s Miss Marple and Colin Dexter?s Inspector Morse, even Downton Abbey will like this story, as it celebrates everything - especially traditional and eccentric - about some of the lives and customs in the heart of the historic city of Cambridge; characters are quite simply caught up in the majesty of this most beautiful place in England. The Plot of POISON: When junior lecturer, Edward Wiley, dies an horrifically painful death and police pathology can't establish the cause, amateur sleuth Professor Elizabeth Green is desperate to help, especially as it happened in her own back garden. Elizabeth Green is a lecturer of plant sciences at the University of Cambridge, specialising in poisonous flora. From time to time Cambridgeshire police, especially Inspector Abley, call on her skills to help deal with cases involving poison. In her fifties, Elizabeth Green is quintessentially English. An eccentric professor in her ivory tower, she maintains a sharp wit, yet is flawed by her inability to connect well with people, instead giving off a cold, opinionated and sometimes acerbic air. Though very kind to animals and a great gardener, in truth she keeps her friends close, and only lets a few dear people into her world. We pick up with Elizabeth having been on a break from solving crimes. Devastated by her husband's death just a year ago, she hates to feel invisible or let her life pass her by. Both the bumbling and kind Inspector Abley, and her effete grandson, Godric, who is at the university and living with her at the moment, think she should steer clear of getting involved with the police for a while. But no matter how strong their protests, Elizabeth is determined to be useful again. Following another grisly murder, a tense Inspector Abley realises he can't solve this crime without Elizabeth. With people dropping like flies, Elizabeth's unbridled curiosity embroil this meddling sleuth right in the heart of this mysterious case in this historic city. She isn't shy to call on her intellectual and loyal friend, Emily, who also gets pulled into things whether she likes or not.
