Guilty by Definition by Susie Dent

Agatha Christie meets Countdown in the debut mystery novel from the Genius of Dictionary Corner, Susie Dent
"If you're like me and love both language and crime, then Guilty by Definition has it allSusie Dent's impressive debut novel is virtuosic. So meticulously and fascinatingly steeped in the archaic glory of words, it will surely be the ultimate treat for every logophile out there...Guilty by Definition is positively aglitter with etymological and detecting treasures for word-sleuths and crime-fans alike." - Janice Hallett
