Murder Most Foul
I have, in my time, smothered, knifed, strangled, hanged, shot, poisoned and bludgeoned them to death.I have injected air bubbles into their arteries, dropped them into cellars to starve to death, hired killers to see them off, set up fake suicides, and now I’ve run out of ideas.
I still need to kill off between four and six characters over the space of two books, ideally using ways that you or I could do, or for that matter solve, without needing fantastic skills, special equipment, or untraceable poisons distilled from a mushroom found only in one acre of the Amazon forest.
Common or garden murders, tricky to solve, easy to achieve either remotely or without getting spattered and therefore instantly spotted. Easy.
I got a couple of excellent suggestions and a couple of suggestions I suspect were taking the Michael when I raised this briefly in another blog
but you know what, you ever wanted to murder someone, now's your chance.
