This is a murder mystery. It's a good and creative program. Augusta Sanderson is a female professor of agriculture. She has discovered a way of growing a clover with increased protein. This would have application in eastern countries where goats could produce more milk after eating it - bringing a great increase in health to those living in that area. The problem is the people that she is trying to help - they are throwing up roadblocks for apparently religious reasons. Then, there's a murder. Professor Sanderson stands accused.

A woman enters a bar asking for whatever will give her courage, or make her forget. When she is awakened on the morning after the night before, it appears she may have found a glass of exactly what she wanted, for she is arrested on suspicion of murder. The death of a rival in agricultural research, who she claims stole an important biological innovation she invented, is being blamed on her. With the help of a sympathetic policeman, they attempt to solve the mystery together.

I liked this story but it is now a bit dated. There are still cultures in the world today that look at women less than equal, but there are definitly less of them today. The story still managed to keep me interested and I secretly rooted for the truth to reveal itself. I can't stand when the the two main characters all of a sudden express how beautiful they find each other. I'll listen to the story without the cheese please. I give this story 4 stars.
