HerculeAndAchille said:

Because it sounds like Desmond Burton-Cox…

Yep. I see it was too easy, but good for you! Your turn.

HerculeAndAchille

I was handsome, they said,
The silly young girls with their faces blushing red.
But I wanted money - and I wanted it fast,
Who knew how long my income would last?

No, it isn't Lance Fortescue.

HerculeAndAchille

Any questions at all?

ChristieFanForLife

Does he get killed?

Yes.

Is it Alfred Crackenthorpe in 4:50 From Paddington? Probably not.

Eliot Hayden

HerculeAndAchille

Good job Tali! It is Giuseppe. Your turn!

Second try this week! My creativity is taking a nose dive... but here goes.

I loved unwisely
I died for a song
which was smoke
I was granted justice
for justice's sake.

ChristieFanForLife

Talia, is the character from a Poirot book? Miss Marple? Tommy & Tuppence? Or a non-series one? 

taliavishay-arbel

Miss Marple.

ChristieFanForLife

Is this from a Miss Marple novel or a short story? 

taliavishay-arbel

From a Novel.

Mrs Blair

Is it Michael Rafiel?

taliavishay-arbel

No. And a correction: the victim's death partly for a song and partly for another reason.

ChristieFanForLife

Is the victim male or female?

taliavishay-arbel

Female. Midnight here, so I'm heading for bed. More answers tomorrow.

Bess Sedgewick?
