In 1886 Adelaide Barlett was tried at the Old Bailey on the charge of poisoning her husband Edwin. In this book the author offers an imaginative interpretation of this famous case, ending with a solution of an affair which still remains a mystery. Did the adjective 'sweet' apply to Adelaide, or was she a cunning and deliberate poisoner? Was the Wesleyan Minister George Dyson just a platonic friend, or something more than than? And if Adelaide committed the crime, how did she do it? --Book jacket.

In 1972, in an attempt to elevate the stature of the "crime novel," influential crime writer and critic Julian Symons cast numerous Golden Age detective fiction writers into literary perdition as "Humdrums," condemning their focus on puzzle plots over stylish writing and explorations of character, setting and theme. This volume explores the works of three prominent British "Humdrums"--Cecil John Charles Street, Freeman Wills Crofts, and Alfred Walter Stewart--revealing their work to be more complex, as puzzles and as social documents, than Symons allowed. By championing the intrinsic merit of these mystery writers, the study demonstrates that reintegrating the "Humdrums" into mystery genre studies provides a fuller understanding of the Golden Age of detective fiction and its aftermath.
