In a tense Ellery Queen narrative, Jessica is blamed for dropping poison into a glass after a broken pitcher scene. Ellery argues Desmon acted, revealing motive rooted in marriage and family breakups, ending with a counsel to forget the tragedy as healing begins.
Bayard Fox reveals his wife Jessie did not poison herself but was murdered in a chain of accidental events. Ellery links the poison to a careless boy, Davy, who mixed digitalis in a chemistry set and left a glass with poison in the purple glassware, forcing a fatal accident. Bayard confronts the truth and agrees Davy must never know.
A regional note describes the Leschenaultia native to Western Australia. Named for botanist Leschenault de la Tour, it grows abundantly in the Darling Ranges with finest specimens east of Northam. The text ties its beauty to Emu Bitter ale's refreshing qualities.
