The Murder of My Aunt: British Library Crime Classics by Richard Hull

He decides to get rid of his aunt so he can have his own way.  She's always picking on him and doesn't give him much of an allowance.  She's trying to control his life.  He'll just help her have an accident and free up his life...

Poisoned Pen Press and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published tomorrow.

He tries to kill her in a car accident, then tries to burn the house down.  She warns him that she wants no more accidents to happen or she'll retaliate.  Then  he tries to poison her. He's not so smart and she's not so dumb.  He should have listened to her.
