He'd Rather Be Dead

He'd Rather Be Dead - George Bellairs

He'd Rather Be Dead

The mayor of a seaside town is murdered, and a London police detective must sort through motives both political and personal . . .

Thanks to its mayor, Sir Gideon Ware, the quiet harbor town of Westcombe has turned into a crowded and rather garish seaside destination where visitors can come to escape the stress of wartime. When Ware collapses at a lavish luncheon, felled by strychnine, Inspector Littlejohn must travel from London to solve the seemingly inexplicable murder. Ware was surrounded by local bigwigs at his table--but that's just the beginning of the suspect list, as Littlejohn untangles the rivalries, resentments, and corrupt dealings that permeate this picturesque but troubled community . . .

Praise for the Inspector Littlejohn mysteries

"Assured prose, well-drawn characters, and the atmosphere of 1940s wartime England . . . well worth the reader's time." --Publishers Weekly

"Everything is quite comparable in tone to a really good Simenon." --The New York Times

"Dryly ceremonious wit [that] shines from the very first page." --Kirkus Reviews
