The Poisoner is a novel written by the British author Gerald Cumberland and published in 1921. The story revolves around a wealthy businessman named Arnold Willoughby, who is found dead in his study after apparently ingesting poison. The police suspect that his wife, Lady Willoughby, may have been responsible for his death, as she had been seen arguing with him on the night of his murder.However, as the investigation progresses, it becomes clear that there are several other suspects who may have had a motive for killing Arnold Willoughby. These include his business partner, his secretary, and a young woman who had been involved in a scandal with him.The novel is a classic whodunit, with a complex plot and a range of intriguing characters. It explores themes of jealousy, greed, and betrayal, as well as the darker side of human nature. The Poisoner is a gripping and suspenseful read, and is widely regarded as one of Cumberland's best works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
