It refers not only to the fact that the central character dies of poison thought to be self - administered but also to the fact that this character is a man obsessed with the past. Augustus Gale was a man in love - in love with a woman of genius who had been dead for over a century. This macabre devotion poisoned both his own life and the lives of those around him: his son and daughter his beautiful second wife and even his devoted mother. Yet it was a strictly confined obsession and when a party of archaeologists sought permission to excavate a Roman mosaic pavement on Augustus's land they were met with blunt and contemptuous refusal. It might be said that Augustus Gale was a man who deserved to die but if so whose was the hand that killed him and with what motive?\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Sweet Poison\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Fitt Mary\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Moonstone Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781899000746\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 208 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 3\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Classic Crime","brand":"Fitt Mary","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49626036371761,"sku":"IN-G-9781899000746","price":17.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781899000746.jpg?v=1724910572","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781899000746-sweet-poison","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
