Passing Strange
by Catherine Aird
Bantam Books, 1982
Mass Market Paperback, 174 pages
Condition is Acceptable. Spine not creased. Cover has some light wear and thumb creases from handling, and a quarter-inch nip taken out of the bottom corner of the back (see photos). Bookstore ink stamp inside front cover. Inside of covers tanning heavily. No loose pages or dog-ears. Reasonably nice copy of a 1980's-era English mystery.
"Two terrible injustices occurred at the annual Horticultural Society Flower Show in the village of Almstone: Ken Walls' splendid tomatoes were overlooked in the competition and Nurse Cooper was murdered. Her body lay under a tarpaulin behind the fortuneteller's tent, which, along with the rest of the exhibitions, had been pitched in the venerable grounds of the Priory estate. For Detective Inspector C. D. Sloan, it was simply a question of who benefited from the nurse's demise. But his only clues were the suspicious appearance of an heiress, a reel of green wire, and an empty cup of tea."
