Various pro writers I've met over the years have mentioned a book called Deadly Doses by Serita Stevens & Anne Klarner, which was published as a writer's guide to poisons, as a key resource for would-be mystery writers.
In checking up on the title/author information just now, it looks as if Stevens and another writer, Anne Louise Bannon (or I suppose it could be the same collaborator under a married/remarried/divorced name), have recently updated the book as How Dunit: Book of Poisons, and that there are at least a couple of other books in the publisher's "howdunit" reference series, on forensics and police procedure. Not perhaps 100% on point for "coverup" strategy, but likely to have useful data.
