About this listen

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)
All stars
Most relevant
Couldn't finish it, the author tried to be cute and clever but the whole story could have been told in less than half the time with less brainless and boring characters. The mystery had potential but the writing style (and 'I'll just pop the kettle on deary' voiced narrator) was just annoying.

Really tough going
