Set in the midwest, a woman is found dead in a parked car, the verdict is death by stroke. Later a prominent clergyman is found dead in his study, and the verdict…is the same, death by stroke. An autopsy was ordered and both victims were poisoned with a poison that acted within five minutes. The baffling fact was that no one had any opportunity to administer the rare poison.
