***Semi-spoiler alert! *** In the 1982 novel "Banker", by Dick Francis, selenium is used not for the purpose of killing people, but rather to create birth defects in racehorses. The bad guys are willing to murder- but not with the poisonous element mentioned. One of Francis' best, in my humble opinion.
