The sleepy seaside town of Taviscombe has more than its share of gossips and schemers. It also has Mrs. Sheila Malory, a widow whose gift for judging character and unmasking murderers is as impressive as her knowledge of nineteenth-century literature. Mrs. Malory''s sleuthing talents are tested once again when she comes upon the body of one of her friends, a sweet elderly lady. Miss Graham''s death by poison is quite convenient for a local doctor of dubious reputation; the dead woman''s refusal to move thwarted Dr. Cowley''s plans to build a nursing home. But Mrs. Malory knows that nothing is as simple as it seems, especially when it is revealed that Miss Graham left a considerable fortune.

Superfluous Death is the sixth of Hazel Holt''s Mrs. Malory mysteries. Less
