[synopsis] => "A witty and tricky plot and a genuinely shocking conclusion."-Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
A mystery dinner theater party thrown by local author with a taste "for rather gruesome humor" requires guests come dressed as infamous killers-Jack the Ripper, Dr. Crippen, and the like. Whatever could go wrong?
Know-it-all amateur criminologist Roger Sheringham settles in for an evening of beer, small talk, and analyzing his companions. Ena Stratton, the host's sister-in-law, catches his attention. Her erratic mood swings and loud, gossipy talk is winning her more than a few enemies amongst the guests. When she's found dead, it's clear that one of the partygoers helped her to an early grave.
Noticing a key detail that could implicate a friend in the crime, Sheringham decides to meddle with the scene and unwittingly makes himself a suspect.
Tightly paced and cleverly defying the conventions of the classic detective story, Anthony Berkeley's dark sense of humor and taste for the macabre drive this 1933 classic.
This edition includes an introduction by CWA Diamond Dagger and Edgar ® Award-winning author Martin Edwards.
