An infamous fraud has been poisoned at a congress of geneticists, and the suspects include a dozen vindictive former assistants and humiliated colleagues. Enter Professor John Stubbs, Scottish botanist and amateur sleuth, whose investigation employs humorously unconventional methods. Written under a pseudonym by art critic and poet Ruthven Campbell Todd, this witty 1945 whodunnit recaptures the flavour of English university life during the mid-20th century. AUTHOR: Ruthven Campbell Todd (1914-78) was a Scottish-born poet, scholar, art critic, and fantasy novelist who wrote a series of detective novels under the name R. T. Campebell.

I'm also grateful to the "Foreword" by Peter Main that helped me to learn the significance of R.T. Campbell's writing in the history of the mystery genre. Professor John Stubbs is an interesting man and by profession a botanist or as his nephew shares is more correctly termed a plant-physiologist. The professor is an even more intriguing amateur sleuth determined to "prove" his detective skills as he's a dedicated reader of detective stories.
Kudos to Dover Publications for bringing this (c)1945 gem back in print giving an opportunity for new readers to discover and enjoy the absorbing experience. ( )
