A Taste for Killing (eBook, ePUB)
Whose was the hand that poisoned Godfrey Bowyer? Bradecote and Catchpoll are on the trail of the killer.January, 1145. Godfrey Bowyer, the best but least likeable bow maker in Worcester, dies an agonising death by poisoning. Although similarly struck down after the same meal, his wife Blanche survives. The number of people who could have administered the poison should mean a very short investigation for the Sheriff's men, Hugh Bradecote and Serjeant Catchpoll, but perhaps someone was pulling the strings, and that widens the net considerably. Could it be the cast-out younger brother or perhaps Orderic the Bailiff, whose wife may have had to endure Godfrey's attentions? Could it even be the wife herself? With Bradecote eager to return to his manor and worried about his wife's impending confinement, and Underserjeant Walkelin trying to get his mother to accept his choice of bride, there are distractions aplenty, though Serjeant Catchpoll will not let them get in the way of solving this case.- Shop: buecher

Sure, a saltwater (SW) tank requires considerably more work and attention, but its hard to beat the satisfaction of knowing that you created a unique environment for warm water fish that few aquarists enjoy. Obviously, many will argue that a freshwater (FW) system has its own merits. At the end of the day, personal preference dictates which setup is right for you. Of course, practically speaking, so does a budget. But if the commitment to creating and maintaining either type of system isn't daunting enough to keep you away, you'll be rewarded by your efforts from the moment your fish are introduced to your tank!

He was also convinced that she'd been responsible for three murders, though he'd never been able to prove it. He was right. A federal marshal now, with a very wide scope of investigation, he's heard rumours that Grant has found her seat on the Senate intelligence committee, and the contacts she's made from it, to be very...useful. Pinning those rumours down was likely to be just as difficult as before, and considerably more dangerous. But they had unfinished business, he and Grant. One way or the other, he was going to see it through to the end. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Richard Ferrone.
