A Little Local Murder

Radio Broadwich decides to do a documentary on the small village of Twytching for international broadcast and the townspeople divide between those who seek the patronage of Mrs. Deborah Withins arbiter of taste and morals and those determined to displace her in the cutthroat contest for media recognition. When a rash of poison-pen letters and a murder coincide quiet inspector George Parrish begins to uncover secrets the leading citizens of Twytching had thought and fervently hoped were buried.
