Miss Pinkerton by Mary Roberts Rinehart

To the world she was Nurse Adams. To the police she was....Miss Pinkerton. As Miss Adams could tell you, "a trained nurse sees a lot." Small wonder then that the police have taken to calling her in on their toughest cases. At present, she's attending a frail and elderly Juliet Mitchell, whose nephew, Herbert Lynne, has recently been found shot in his bedroom. A possible suicide? Miss P. thinks not after she meets Paula, Herbert's secret fiancée, and learns the pair was about to elope. With more than one late-nigh interloper lurking around the mansion, Miss Pinkerton must race to find a cure for an uncommon killer.
