While reading Strong Poison I knew that it was part of a series of books... what I just now realized is that FIVE of those books are on my mystery reading list. The series follows Lord Peter Wimsey, a British gentleman that solves mysteries in his spare time. In this book he is following the case of Harriet Vane, a woman accused of poisoning her ex-boyfriend. He believes that she is innocent and sets out to solve the case before Harriet is convicted... and he also falls in love with her.The book was entertaining. Maybe I'd have liked it more if I didn't start with a book from the middle of the series. It reminded me of one of those Masterpiece Mysteries that Lucinda is always watching. It is definitely very British. I'm glad I enjoyed it since there are four more books on this list. I'll give it a B+.
