Description
Robin Pagham is dead โ drowned in a sailing accident. The reaction of everyone in the village on hearing this tragic news is that Robin must have been drunk. After all, that was what he did best โ that and drug-dealing and breaking his former girlfriendโs nose, with a bit of TV acting on the side. Surprisingly, newspaper reports of the inquest state that no alcohol was found in Robinโs blood. It was accidental death, with no clear cause. At the funeral however Robinโs latest girlfriend โ to whom he has just got engaged โ stands up and, lifting back her veil, announces that somebody in the congregation has murdered Robin and that sheโs going to have their arse. Although estranged, Elsie and Ethelred begin simultaneous investigations into Robinโs death โ as ever with some comical results.
What The Critics Said
'L. C. Tyler gives us crime in the classic mould with a sharp comic edge. As played here by two incompatible oddballs, an infectious sense of fun enhances a genuine mystery.'
