Not to Be Taken: A Puzzle in Poison - Anthony Berkeley

Detalii:

nThe murder is by arsenic; and although the number of suspects is strictly limited the construction is so ingenious that to attain the correct solution of the problem requires all the readers concentration; to skip is fatal. Times Literary Supplement, 1938n nJohn Waterhouse has died of some gastric complication. Exhumed at his brothers request, it transpires that he has been killed by arsenical poisoning, though nobody in the sleepy village of Anneypenny seems to have had a reason to do him ill. Rumors abound of Nazi intrigue and military skullduggery, but whatever the motive, the truth remains; this was murder.n nOriginally serialized as a competition with a prize for the readers that could answer Berkeleys direct challenge of who was the poisoner?, Not to Be Taken remains one of the most fiendish exercises in subtle clue work and detection from the Golden Age of Crime.n
