A is for Arsenic: The Poisons of Agatha Christie
By Kathryn Harkup
"Agatha Christie revelled in the use of poison to kill of unfortunate victims in her books. She employed it more than any other murder method, with the poison itself often being a central part of the plot, providing vital clues to the discovery of the murderer's identity.

This book is a celebration of the science used by the undisputed Queen of Crime."
