Description
The King and the Corpse by Max Murray is a humorous mystery novel that follows Anthony Tolworth as he searches for entertainment and remuneration at a French Riviera resort. His search takes an unexpected turn when he discovers a corpse on the beach, leading him to try and solve the crime himself. As Anthony enlists the help of his headmistress aunt and two young boys, he must navigate complex local politics and Althenian affairs, which make the task almost impossible. The book's identity as a real pleasure to read is well concealed, keeping readers engaged until the very end. First published in 1949, this entertaining mystery novel showcases Max Murray's writing style with enormous humour and zest.
