Wrack and Rune by Charlotte MacLeod
In the sleepy hamlet of Lumpkins Corners, Professor Peter Shandy's reputation as an amateur sleuth was almost as well known as his success in developing a new strain of rutabaga. So when violent and exceedingly unpleasant death visited Horsefall Farm, the third phone call - after the police and the coroner were called - was to Professor Shandy.

The cause of death was all too clear: quicklime. The verdict: a tragic accident. But that was before a nosy young reporter dug up an ancient Nordic runestone and its curse. Before 102-year-old Sven Svenson took up with an older woman. Before Professor Shandy pieced together a puzzle that pointed to a very clever killer.
