Eggs over Arsenic: A 19th Century Historical Murder Mystery by Clay BoutwellMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Clay Boutwell has done another good job with the interesting mystery in this classic who done it.
An art critic is murder. Only one way to get to the poison to killed him. On top of that a house full of suspects, many who had the motive, others had the means. As Carl Brooke (a Sherlock Holmes type) and Captain Barnwell (policeman investigating) try to find out the person who did the murder, the ones most likely to may not be the one who did it.
Keeps you guessing until the end but go back and read it and the clues are there.
Other than the murder, it is safe to read for all age groups. Even the murder is just talked about not seen.
Recommended for people who want a good quick mystery to read.
