A DRAM OF POISON

by Charlotte Armstrong ‧ RELEASE DATE: July 30, 1956

An ingenious chase for poison in an olive oil bottle is built around a marriage threatened by a dominating woman and goes apace before it gets husband and wife back to mutual trust. Ken Gibson, intending to suicide, loses the poison, then alerts the police, while his young wife, Rosemary, goes off on a hunt of her own. It leads to Ken's sister, a prospective mass poisoner, as the root of the trouble. With a Robert Nathan cast of characters this puts a fantasy twist around the ordinary.
