Synopsis | Horror grips the village of St Martini Mead when the body of General Rupert Stick-Monocle is discovered in the drawing room of the deanery. Is it suicide or has he been murdered? The doctor and local amateur sleuth Miss Marbles disagree, and it's left for Detective Inspector Titus Tyte-Canby to deduce what has happened. But if it is murder, who did it, and why? And who else may the murderer pounce on - the curate, the tennis-club alcoholic, the Russian au pair, the doctor, the Dean? A spoof whodunit inspired by Agatha Christie and Midsomer Murders. |
