Reading one of SWMBO's crime novels.

The victim is murdered by cutting a car brake line.
Though it was a pre dual circuit car I reckon I would know the instant
I wnet to start the engine there was a fault as I always put my foot
on the brake. Even without that, there are few circumstance wher nor
having a foot brake would kill you.
I can't think of a single way to sabotage a car to guarantee death
short of explosives.

Stupid plot. These authors must be like journalists, thick as ****.

And in the films where the car is careering down the hill and the
stupid nonce does not try the gears (and yes, it's a manual).



Easier way is to take an empty syringe with a needle and inject air into
a suitable vein. Death by embolism, nothing to be detected and a tiny
puncture wound unlikely to be noticed. Only theory at the moment.

or insulin

Air is usually more readily available.
