Review

"Crime in Corn-Weather, by Mary M. Atwater, is the story of a perfect murder with no corpus delicti and no real clue. The reason for the murder and how the crime was concealed is gradually and skillfully unfolded. It is a realistic portrayal of the effect of a murder on the lives of a community." (‘New Books in Brief Review,’ Isabel Patterson, 1935)
