If Lester Ballard had any say in the matter, he wouldn't be dead in the cheap gabardine suit. Ruth Seabright, governess to Lester's son Nicky, found his murdered body, & was as baffled by its incongruous attire as by the murder itself. But that is only the first of many puzzles: where is Nicky, who has been searching Ruth's bedroom, & how can a corpse be in two places at once? Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

The title of the book refers to the medieval belief that a witch could be in two places at once. There are so many twists & turns in this little book, you will keep reading just to find out what will happen next. Also, Ruth is not weak or a fool, as women are often portrayed in these old books (this one was published in 1951). She gets angry, she curses out someone she thought was a friend who betrays her, she stands up for herself against the police and everyone else who thinks she is guilty.
This was the first book by Elizabeth Ferrars that I've read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope to track down more books by this overlooked mystery author. ( )
