An Author Bites the Dust by Arthur William Upfield
A cat a ping-pong ball a drunken gardener.
With these slight clues to go on Detective-Inspector Bonaparte investigates the mysterious death of famous author, Mervyn Blake, who dies an agonising death late one night in his writing room. But how did he die? No one knows. No one that is until Bony's acute observation of human nature uncovers the murderer and the method used to kill Blake.
One of the few Bonaparte mysteries not set in the outback, An Author Bites the Dust reveals the author as his best and most ingenious.
Upfield, Arthur: - Arthur Upfield wrote twenty-nine Bony mystery stories between 1929 and 1962, as well as several other books including mysteries, romances, and an autobiography. Arthur W. Upfield was born in England, but moved to Australia and adopted it as his homeland. He traveled throughout the country and tried his hand at many trades, including boundary rider and station hand. His travels lent him a wealth of first-hand experiences that make his books fascinating and believable. He captures the majesty of Australia, especially the outback country, and its people.
