Murder In The Rose Garden

Description for MURDER IN THE ROSE GARDEN by Elliott Roosevelt: Someone has planted a corpse among the White House's world-famous roses -- the body of prominent hostess Vivian Taliafero, discovered strangled just beneath the Cabinet Room window. Before her demise, the popular socialite had been a very busy blackmailer, seducing, then photographing, powerful politicos in extremely compromising positions. The list of murder suspects reads like a who's-who, with the military and every branch of the federal government well represented. But F.D.R. is out boating and J. Edgar Hoover is crime-busting in gangland, so it falls to feisty First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt to expose the killer...before the seamy revelations of this seedy case brings Washington's rosey fa�ade tumbling to the ground. This is #6 in Eleanor Roosevelt series.
