Two Crime Novels by D. E. Poole.
Born and bred in Oxford, David Poole (1944-2000) studied at the University of St Andrews, and thereafter lived his adult life in the town, where he raised his family and worked as a classics teacher in nearby Dundee. Better known locally in his lifetime as a poet, in the early 1980s he also wrote two short detective novels, here printed for the first time.
In The Archer of Ceres, Inspector Malone and Detective Constable White of the Fife CID investigate the bizarre murder of a crooked accountant, in a tale that takes them from the village of Ceres in Fife to the tents of the Stewards’ Enclosure at Henley Royal Regatta.
In Death of A Dundee Teacher, an earlier adventure of Malone and White, a bachelor schoolteacher is found murdered in his flat in the heart of St Andrews. Malone and White must disentangle the mysterious life of the deceased, in a story of poetry, jealousy, and beer.
