The Murder Room
The Murder Room
By Jack Sharkey
Two days after their wedding Edgar discovers that Mavis - a nasty piece of work - is being unfaithful.
After her first attempt to kill him by poisoning his cocoa fails when the cat dies instead, Mavis resorts to shooting him and then returning to her lover. Chaos and complications reign when it transpires that the shots were blanks and that Edgar's body has vanished.
The Murder Room spoofs the traditional "locked-room" murder mystery with mistaken identities, hysterical characters, fast paced action and witty, clever dialogue.
