Murder Every Monday

 

 
 
Kate at Cross Examining Crime hosts a fun mystery cover game on Instagram called Murder Every Monday. Our assignment, should we choose to accept it, is to display book covers and titles from books you own that meet prompts which she posts well in advance (see link). I've been participating for quite some time on Instagram and I have decided to post here as well.
 
Today's theme is titles with literary allusions.
 
Nothing Like Blood ~Leo Bruce [Vanity Fair by Thakeray]
The Mirror Crack'd ~ Agatha Christie ["The Lady of Shalott" by Tennyson]
Clouds of Witness ~Dorothy L. Sayers [Hebrews 12:1]
 
Cold Bed in the Clay ~Ruth Sawtell Wallis [Medea by Euripedes]
A Guilty Thing Surprised ~Ruth Rendell ["Ode on Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood" by Wordsworth]
Sound of Revelry ~Octavus Roy Cohen [Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, Canto iii. Stanza 21 by Lord Byron]
And Be a Villain ~Rex Stout [Hamlet by Shakespeare]
