The 1920s most stylish sleuth returns in The Crystal Crypt for another thrilling murder mystery!

“But accidents can still happen… Perhaps there was something out of her control, something she couldn’t have foreseen…”

“Like someone plotting to kill her?”

Reporter sleuth Poppy Denby is asked to investigate the mysterious death of an up-and-coming female scientist in an Oxford laboratory known as the Crystal Crypt. The official verdict is that Dr June Leighton died in a tragic accident, but Dr Leighton's lab assistant believes it was murder. However, when Poppy discovers that the colleague has spent time in a mental institution and has an unresolved murder in her own past, Poppy wonders if she is being misled. But then, another female academic is attacked, and Poppy herself becomes a target.©2021 Fiona Veitch Smith (P)2021 W. F. Howes Ltd

Poppy does it again!

Love the strong female lead attracting more strong females into her sphere. Great suspense developed and reeled in. Good stuff!

Wonderful suspense and excellent story telling

I loved the story. So many twists and turns and excellent depth. Poppy is such a great character

Excellent mystery & great new characters!

Very entertaining addition to Poppy’s story. Loved the new characters Dr. Gertrude and PC Rosie Winters. Hope we see more of them in future books. Fantastic ending with unexpected but logical villain unmasked and women saving the day. Love how Daniel and Poppy’s lives are moving forward.

Never knew who did it

Kept me intrigued all the way thru and never guessed who did it! Love the narrator also!
