Once again Detective-Inspector Bill Aveyard,
the youngest man ever to hold that rank in
the Birton policc force, is engaged, with the
help of Detective-Sergeant Jim Bruton, in
unraveling a mysterious crime in a Midlands
village. This time it seems to be all a matter of
bones : the jawbone a dog finds in the grounds
nf the Hall, and the rcst of the skeleton the
police uncover after a painstaking search of
the village of Bent; the bone dust that con-
tains blood beneath a wood-yard s circular
saw; the skeleton in a closet in Bent Hall
itself. The stone-built village of Bent carries
a rich patina of life: Nellie Binns is waiting
to die but needs first to speak of what hap-
pened long ago; Mrs. Gibbins covers walls
with tortured paintings; Fran does more for
a child than even its mother can.
Here is the James Fraser authenticity, the
fascinating detail of crime-detection probing
into village life--a background no one paints
better. All the clues arc there, for readers
will be drawn into the exeitiug game of solv-
ing the plots and counterplots; but Deadly
Nightshade can be enjoyed on another level
as a descriptive novel of the highest quality.
