Common or Garden Crime (Rue Morgue Vintage Mysteries)
Sheila Pim's crisp first book, Common or Garden Crime, originally published in 1945 and reprinted now in The Rue Morgue's vintage series, tells of murder by herbs in a Dublin protosuburb. When a neighbor is murdered with monkshood from Lucy Bex's garden, the upright, indomitable Bex undertakes to save the wrongfully accused.Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
