Fire Burn, Cauldron Bubble: Magical Poems Chosen by Paul Cookson
"Double, double toil and trouble. Fire burn and cauldron bubble."
Macbeth, William Shakespeare
Sir Hugo Blanchflower's died peacefully in his bed in his castle in Quinster, but his last words to his wife filled her with terror. The next nine years, however, passed without incident until one night in the nearby Red Deer.
Lady Blanchflower and her companion, Mrs Whitburn, seemed to be in an unusual mood when dining in the public house, but there was nothing that would lead an observer to expect what was discovered the following morning. Lady Blanchflower is found in the castle strangled by a silk stocking, and Mrs Whitburn has vanished without trace.
Once Anthony Bathurst discovers Mrs Whitburn's body, the question becomes who was the intended victim? And why was a gentleman's wig found underneath Lady Blanchflower's body?
And Cauldron Bubble was first published in 1951. This new edition features an introduction by Steve Barge.
