Rosemary for Remembrance — June Thomson

Low-key, lonely Inspector Jack Rudd is called in to solve a murder at a creative-writing summer school. Handsome, selfish bisexual Jake Nolan, a writer-director who spends his summers teaching playwriting to the adult students at the Morton Grange School, is disliked by many. So, when Jake is found dead in the school pool, suspects abound. But why is mild-mannered, middle-aged student Frank Goodyear also found dead, carbon-monoxided in the school garage? And why -- in apparent reference to Hamlet -- did someone strew rosemary on one body and pansies on the other?
