‘A Whiff of Cyanide’ is the third in the Hampstead Murders series by Guy Fraser-Sampson.
Ann Durham is the head of the Crime Writer’s Association and has been for years. But now a challenge is being mounted, and she may be set to lose everything she has worked for.
So when Ann is poisoned with cyanide at the association’s dinner at their big convention in Hampstead, is it suicide…or murder?
The team from Hampstead nick have to find out.
As per the other books, this one is a lovely mix of crime and character stories. Those who have read the previous books will get a hell of a shock at what happens next in the Peter Collins/Karen Willis/Bob Metcalfe storyline. It packed a punch not unlike one from Mohammed Ali!
Sprinkled with the quirky observations and one-liners, ‘A Whiff of Cyanide’ is a delicious addition to the series.
I have the fourth book at home. I am hoarding it. Because once I’ve read it, they’re all gone!
Guy Fraser-Sampson is the finest addition to the UK’s crime writing fraternity in years.
