If you have nerve enough to kill someone, you have nerve enough for anything.
Description
If you have nerve enough to kill someone, you have nerve enough for anything.
Three dazzling sisters are suspects in the murder of their own mother. If only Viola could have predicted the potential danger when she drafted the will – which prevented any of her daughters being married strictly for her fortune.
But no case is too intriguing for shrewd detective Slim Callaghan, who stirs up seemingly calm waters in the tiny village of Alfriston, leaving chaos in his wake and a stunningly solved puzzle at the adventure’s thrilling close. One of the author’s finest stories of mystery and detection.
Uneasy Terms was originally published in 1946.
