Summary

London, early 1950s. Marcia Beasley of St John's Wood is discovered dead in her home, naked and covered with a coal scuttle. Detective Sergeant Greenleaf is tasked with solving the crime and bringing meaning to her gruesome death, and it seems her whole social circle have secrets to hide and grudges to bear.

Who, for example, is the limping midnight visitor? Is the bibulous priest as ingenious as he seems? And will Mrs Burkiss ever yield her keys to the broom cupboard?

Critic reviews

"A perfect mixture of funny and acerbic, with a cast of colourful characters and a school of well-deployed red herrings, A Little Murder is wholly delightful." (Laura Wilson, author of Stratton’s War)

Too many characters to keep track of. Story quite good but takes some concentrating to really follow it at all times.

Long and a little too complex…

Lovely story, excellent twist. Nice period details and competent narrator. I only listened as it it was free but have put the next one on my wish list.

There were a tad too many characters for my liking, I got confused at a point. Otherwise a compelling story. At some point I was convinced almost all of the others had done the deed.
