Event Details

For our January meeting we're reading Strong Poison by Dorothy Sayers.

The classic 1930 mystery that first featured Harriet Vane, companion sleuth to the dashing private investigator, Lord Peter Wimsey, from the mystery writer widely considered the greatest mystery novelist of the Golden Age--Dorothy L. Sayers.

Featuring an introduction by Elizabeth George, herself a crime fiction master, Strong Poison introduces Harriet Vane, a mystery writer who is accused of poisoning her fiancé and must now join forces with Lord Peter to escape a murder conviction and the hangman’s noose.
