A humorous whodunnit set in a small town in Ireland

When a resident of Magnerstown is found dead, cynical Inspector Robert Carroll poo-poos his younger sidekick James Sayder’s suspicions of murder.

He struggles to believe it even when the respected Doctor Morris, a pathologist with whom he has a more than rocky rapport, identifies rat poison as the murder weapon.

The investigation centres around the local heritage centre, currently deluged by visiting US tourists chomping their way across Ireland. But suspicion also falls on a local Indian restaurant owner.

With the town hiding its secrets closely, will the bungling cops ever get to the truth of who is playing with their food in a murderous way?

PURE POISON is the fourth murder mystery by Anne Crosse. It can be enjoyed on its own or as part of the series. The full list of books, available FREE with Kindle Unlimited and in paperback, is as follows:

1. DEATH IN MAGNERSTOWN
2. THE MYSTERY OF SUNDAYS WELL
3. MEAT IS MURDER
4. PURE POISON

The first three books are also available in a super-value box set titled SMALL TOWN MURDERS. If you like light-hearted crime fiction full of dark Irish wit, you’ll love these books.
