Charles, according to all accounts, had clearly been boiling up to be murdered.
Charles Courtley was a difficult man. Prone to violent outbursts and a bully to his wife and daughters, he has uprooted his unhappy family from London to a country house in remote East Anglia. Wealthy and increasingly intolerant of any dissent, Charles enjoys dominating everyone around him. His family, his employees and even the localsbanned from using the traditional footpaths on his forested estatehave multiple reasons to bear a grudge. When Charles is killed in the woods, Inspector Simon Sturt finds conflicting motives and tangled relationships between Mrs. Courtley, her daughter Pamela and the local men whose family once owned the estate. But each has an alibi for the time of the murder and no one is talking...
Dorothy Erskine Muir (18891977) was one of seventeen children of John Sheepshanks, Bishop of Norwich. She attended Oxford, worked as an academic tutor, and began writing professionally to supplement the family income after the unexpected death of her husband in 1932. Muir published historical biographies and local histories, as well as three accomplished detective novels: In Muffled Night (1933), Five to Five (1934) and In Memory of Charles (1941). Each is an intricate fictional account based on an unsolved true crime.
