About This Book
Who would've thunk somebody in nice, quiet, Pennsylvania Dutch Plainfield would take to icing deliverymen? And with champagne yet To date, eleven Plainfield men have been found dead after making a delivery to a newly rented up-scale apartment. The murder scene is exactly the same in each case. The deliveryman is found seated at the dining room table, dead of a single glass of champagne liberally laced with poison. The sheer casualness of the murders has nice, quiet "normal" Plainfield shocked to its core. Search as they might for something, anything, connecting the men, three investigative teams have been unable to produce a single viable clue. In this, the third Fairchild mystery, Chief Warmkessel persuades Sal McKnight to forego her work with Juveniles and put her analytical mind to the problem, before hysteria tears the town apart. With her "participas cur arum" twin, Sam Thaxton, off in China doing a job for the government, she taps Rick Masters, a transplanted Californian, happily eating his way through Plainfield's restaurants, a disillusioned veteran sergeant and two young corporals for help. In "Death On Delivery," the third Pennsylvania Dutch Mystery, Sal and her team are joined by the "Main Duke" and his cohorts, who use their own inimitable skills in bringing about the successful apprehension of the murderer.
