A Man Lay Dead by Ngaio Marsh 🔖🔖🔖


First published January 1, 1934
__________

Crime comes to a country house.

This classic from the Golden Age of British mystery opens during a country-house party between the two world wars—servants bustling, gin flowing, the gentlemen in dinner jackets, the ladies all slink and smolder. Even more delicious: The host, Sir Hubert Handesley, has invented a new and especially exciting version of that beloved parlor entertainment, The Murder Game . . . (source: goodreads)

Good old fashioned whodunnit. I enjoy mysteries where the clues are all there. No need to own, though. Might recommend for fun reading.
