Castrevenford School is preparing for Speech Day and Professor Gervase Fen is called upon to present the prizes. However, the night before the big day strange events take place that leave two staff members of staff dead. The Headmaster turns to Professor Fen to investigate the murders. While disentangling the facts of the case, Fen is forced to deal with student love affairs, a kidnapping and a lost Shakespearean manuscript.
Another solid mystery from Crispin, he is very clever , very funny and for a book published originally in 1948 very progressive.
If you enjoy the English 'village' mystery this series is well worth chasing down.
Its a shame that the author's fondness for the bottle curtailed his writing prematurely.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Elizabeth Jahns from Beacon Publishing Group, and I want to make you aware of one of our new non-fiction releases, an autobiography by famed comedian Kip Addotta, titled “Kip Addotta: Confessions of a Comedian.”
Kip Addotta is an American comedian/actor notable for often being featured on The Tonight Show, The Larry Sanders Show, and the syndicated show Make Me Laugh, among many others. He was also featured on The Dr. Demento Show radio show for his songs, “Wet Dream,” “Big Cock Roach,” and “Life in the Slaw Lane,” a series of fish and vegetable malapropisms that, together, form a storyline. In 1989 he released “I Saw Daddy Kissing Santa Claus.” In 1995 Kip Addotta released a DVD, “Live From Maximum Security!”
His autobiography begins with his first interactions with “The Mob” in his early childhood, his nightmarish life with his father until he was on his own at 15 years of age, through his marriages, and how he became one of the best and most famous stand-up comedians of his time. Kip Addotta tells all. He names names and details the how-to and fine-tuning of comedy.
