A MEDIA DEBUT FOR MURDER

It was the worst possible time for murder. 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 --a Herculean task, what with Reverend Tamville-Bence practising exorcisms and holding seances .. . with Mrs. Buller's voluptuous daughter clearly in the family way without her husband's help . . . with tall, elegant Alison Mailer using all her wiles to get interviewed on the air . . . and with hand-some schoolmaster Jack Edgar making eyes at flamboyant Harold Thring, Radio Broadwich's assistant producer.

But when violent death tarnished little Twytching's snug image, it was up to Police Inspector George Parrish to let the skeletons out of the cottage closets and sweep the scandals out from under the beds. .. and to use what old Amos Chipweather saw to catch a killer.
