Book Description Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Crime Club Edition. Hardback. Root of All Evil. Very slight foxing to end inside covers. Wear and a couple of tears to edge of D/J. Andrew Basnett, retired professor of botany, never supposed that accepting aged Cousin Felicity's invitation to stay with her in her Berkshire home over Easter would force him to turn detective. But the reappearance of a former house-keeper in Felicity's vicinity (and her equally sudden disappearance from it) create a mystery which intrigues Basnett. even thought it is dismissed by Felicity's relatives when they arrive for a family party. In any case, events at that party soon give them other things to think about - as they do Basnett, who now finds himself investigating a murder with all too many suspects and apparently just one motive: money. 184 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
