Murder within murder

Frances & Richard Lockridge

Mrs. North must protect her aunt from being poisoned--whether she likes it or not Pamela North has never worried about making sense. When she has a thought, she expresses it, and if no one in the room knows what she's talking about, it's no trouble to her. While Mrs. North's unique style of thought can make her a challenging conversational partner, it also makes her one of the finest amateur sleuths in New York City. But no matter how sharp her wit, she can't pin down Aunt Flora. An indomitable old woman, shaped like a snowman and just as icy, Flora is convinced that someone is trying to slip her arsenic, and she'll be very cross if her niece can't stop the culprit before he succeeds. Aunt Flora stubbornly refuses to let Pamela call in the police, until a suspicious dead body forces them to ask the opinion of Lt. William Weigand. It's a screwy mystery, and that means it's perfect for Mrs. North.

I tried to read this book, but the incredible amount of errors it contained made it much too difficult to follow the story line. It might be a good book. Any way to fix this?
