Radio Broadwich had come to do a documentary on Twytching's local charm. Mrs Withens, self-appointed arbiter of community affairs, was determined to see the town put its best foot forward. But it was a Herculean task, what with Rev Tamville-Bence holding seances; the elegant Alison Mailer using all her wiles to get interviewed on the air; and with schoolteacher Jack Edgar making eyes at the flamboyant Harold Thring, Radio Broadwich's producer. But when violent death tarnishes little Twytching's snug image, it is up to Police Inspector George Parrish to let the skeletons out of the cottage closets.and to use what old Amos Chipweather saw to catch a killer.

Mass market paperback. Condición: Good. 190, [2] pages. Signed by the author on the title page. Robert Barnard (23 November 1936 - 19 September 2013) was an English crime writer, critic and lecturer. His first crime novel, A Little Local Murder, was published in 1976. The novel was written while he was a lecturer at University of Tromsø in Norway. He went on to write more than 40 other books and numerous short stories. Barnard said that his favorite crime writer was Agatha Christie. In 1980 he published a critique of her work titled A Talent to Deceive: An Appreciation of Agatha Christie. Barnard was awarded the Cartier Diamond Dagger in 2003 by the Crime Writers Association for a lifetime of achievement. Under the pseudonym Bernard Bastable, Robert Barnard published two standalone novels and two alternate history books starring Wolfgang Mozart as a detective, he having survived to old age. The news that Radio Broadwich is to make a documentary on Twytching for broadcast in America spreads through the small village like wildfire. Mrs Deborah Withens, Twytching's resident doyenne and arbiter of good taste, takes it upon herself to control the presentation of her 'county town' and assumes responsibility for picking those that will take part, provoking fierce rivalry amongst the villagers. One resident who is reticent to participate in the fuss is Inspector George Parrish . . . until the murder of the first villager chosen, and a rash of poison pen letters uncovering secrets Twytching's leading citizens had fervently hoped were buried, force him to get involved.In this early classic, Robert Barnard skillfully demonstrates that no one is more cunning in preparing the reader to expect the totally unexpected and his incisive character portrayals in this early gem impart a dimension rarely found in English detective fiction.
