- Summary
- "Anthony Berkeley, one of the most influential crime writers of the 1920s and 1930s and founder of the prestigious Detection Club, returns to the reading public. First published in 1932, Murder in the Basement is Berkeley at his most playful. When newlyweds move into a new home only to discover a corpse in their basement, a grueling investigation begins to identify the victim. When avenues of inquiry peter out, Chief Inspector Moresby follows a tenuous lead to amateur criminologist Roger Sheringham, who has been working in a school south of London. In need of evidence of any kind, Moresby picks through Sheringham's satirical novel about his colleagues at the school, convinced that the colorful cast of teachers hides the victim-and perhaps their murderer"--
