Long before the action of vegetable and mineral substances on human beings and animals was known, it is probable that poisonous bodies in some form were used by primitive man. Poisons have been the murderer's friend for thousands of years. Often regarded as the lady's - or doctor's - weapon of choice, they were employed for committing the ultimate crime. Nowadays they still are, with names like strychnine, thallium, cyanide and the ever-present rat poison; every conceivable fatal concoction is included in this broad collection of authentic tales of the poisoner's artform. So sit down and relax, and have a mild (or intense, depending on your constitution) dose of this "Poison" a broad collection of poison-related essays by C.J.S. Thompson.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A journey into the dark corners of friendship.” —Mindy McGinnis, author of The Female of the Species Riverdale meets Karen M. McManus’s Two Can Keep a Secret in this “twisty, sumptuous dark fairy tale of a mystery” (Kara Thomas, author of The Cheerleaders) about estranged friends who reunite when someone commits the murder they’d planned—but didn’t go through with—and leaves one of their own to take the fall. Poppy, Lily, and Belladonna would do anything to protect their best friend, Raven. So when they discovered he was suffering abuse at the hands of his stepmother, they came up with a lethal plan: petals of poppy, belladonna, and lily in her evening tea so she’d never be able to hurt Raven again. But someone got cold feet, the plot faded to a secret of the past, and the group fell apart. Three years later, on the eve of Raven’s seventeenth birthday, his stepmother turns up dead. But it’s only belladonna found in her tea, and it’s only Belladonna who’s carted off to jail. Desperate for help, Belle reaches out to her estranged friends to prove her innocence. They answer the call, but no one is prepared for what comes next. Now, everyone has something to lose and something equally dangerous to hide. And when the tangled web of secrets and betrayal is finally unwound, what lies at its heart will change the group forever.

Download or read book Poison Mysteries in History Romance and Crime Classic Reprint written by C. J. S. Thompson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-14 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poison Mysteries in History, Romance and Crime The Scythians are known to have used poisons and mixed the venom they employed with human blood. Certain tribes of the Caucasus are said to have employed viper-venom mixed with decomposed human blood serum. Aristotle and Strabo state that the Celts were accustomed to poison their arrows and weapons, while Pliny and Celsus refer to the practice among the Gauls. AS late as the seventh century poisoned arrows were used by the Dacians and the Dalmatians on the shores of the Danube, and among the Goths it seems to have been a common custom. Almost every savage tribe and people throughout the world have been found to have their own particular poison for this purpose, and there is little doubt that this method of making the wound caused by the weapons more deadly, has been practised from a period of remote antiquity.
