Episode #40:Nasty Deadly Poisons
from Criminal Mischief: The Art and Science of Crime Fiction · host DP Lyle
Crime writers love poisons. Even those who write the more cozy variety. I mean, arsenic and old lace? Arsenic, the queen of poisons, is often used as are the opioids and amphetamines and a few others. But maybe you want to explore more uncommon, and deadly, options for your story. Some are easy to come by, others a bit more difficult but all have been used and just might add to your story. PAST SHOWS: http://www.dplylemd.com/criminal-mischief.html
