Book description
When Fredericka Wing arrives in South Sutton, Massachusetts, a tiny New
England town, it seems an ideal place for a working summer vacation. She
plans on managing Miss Hartwell's bookstore while working on her own
writing. She never dreamed she would find a body in a hammock in her own
backyard. Someone brutally murdered Catherine Clay, an heir to the
Sutton family fortune. And more violence follows. Together with Peter
Mohun, a professor at a local college, Fredericka sets out to discover
the murderer's identity ... and unravel the secrets of the wealthy and
powerful Sutton family!
"Murders for Sale" -- also published under the title
"Sneeze on Sunday" -- is one of science fiction writer Andre
Norton's rare excursions into the mystery field.
