SYNOPSIS: Christmas in Adelaide promises to be a pleasant vacation for Andrew Basnett, retired professor of botany and amateur sleuth. But the shadow of an unsolved murder hangs over the lives of his hosts, Tony and Jan Gardiner. The police still suspect Jan of her first husband's murder and it doesn't help when a second killing takes place under the same bizarre circumstances. What can a guest do in such a case but try to clear his hostess and solve the crime? - and - Andrew Basnett, that endearing professor of botany who has discovered in retirement a talent for solving crime, decides to accept an invitation from a former student, Tony Gardiner, to spend Christmas with him and his newly wedded wife in Adelaide, where, so Andrew observes, he has heard more bizarre murders have happened than anywhere else in Australia. The remark provokes from Tony an uncharacteristically aggressive response. Andrew could not have known that Jan Gardiner's first husband was the victim of such a crime, that the case is still unsolved, and that Jan is still a suspect. But when in the midst of celebrating Christmas on the beach someone else closely connected with Jan is murdered by identical means, Andrew cannot avoid being drawn into the little circle of family and close friends, among whom the police are convinced the murderer will be found. And of course Andrew cannot avoid making his own observations and drawing certain conclusions which once again lead to the solving of the crimes. Not since The Small World of Murder has Elizabeth Ferrars set a crime novel in Australia. Readers worldwide will welcome Andrew Basnett's foray into another continent, where his sharp eye for human foibles finds as much to occupy it as it has done nearer home in Something Wicked and Root of All Evil. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
