Octagon House

A LOVELY MODEL MURDERED
and Asey Mayo tries to comfort her sister,
WHO HATED THE VICTIM.

Money might have been a motive since there was
A CLEAR CASE OF BLACKMAIL,
but why would anyone paint over a mural except
TO COVER UP A CLUE OR TWO?

It takes brains--and a sense of humor--to deal with Cape Cod characters and the deadly determination of o. of Phoebe Atwood Taylor's most masterful murderers. Only Asey Mayo qualifies, matching wit with wisdom to give the reader a unique mixture of fun and mystery as the "Codfish Sherlock" solves The OCTAGON HOUSE crime puzzle.
