Another Man´s Poison is the fifth mystery novel featuring George and Molly Palmer-Jones by Ann Cleeves, author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope crime series.
Molly Palmer-Jones arrives at her aunt Ursula´s house one morning, only to find her body slumped lifeless on the sofa . . .
Ursula Ottway´s beautiful cottage is wanted by her landlord, politician Marcus Grenville, so he can convert it into a holiday residence. So when Ursula discovers that the illegal use of poisoned bait on Grenville´s land has killed not only a rare bird of prey but also her two beloved cats, she storms to his house and threatens revenge. Shocked and saddened to find Ursula´s body the morning after this conflict, Molly and her husband George decide to piece together a picture of Ursula´s last days. And it soon becomes clear that, for many people on the estate, hers was a very convenient death.
The Palmer-Joneses embark on a murder investigation, but even their professional expertise doesn´t prepare them for what is to follow. A lifetime´s-worth of secrets must surface before a killer can finally be brought to justice . . .
