Publisher's Summary

An Inspector Bonaparte Mystery.

The Answerth family's mansion seems to deserve its nickname of "Venom House". Perhaps that's because of its forbidding setting, an island in the centre of a man-made lake, its treacherous waters studded by the skeletons of long-dead trees. Perhaps it's because of the unquiet ghosts of the Aborigines slaughtered by Answerth ancestors. Or perhaps it's just because the Answerth household is such a strange one.

A bitter story

I have become a true fan of Upfields work. I admire the concept of Detective Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte and he has become one of my favorite charters.

this is a sad bitter story of a family turning on its self where D.I Bonaparte try to settle.

Peter Hosking done an amazing job with his narrative performance
