Sayers, and British Library Crime Classics.When a young couple uncovers a corpse beneath their new London home, Scotland Yard is stumped.

But as Inspector Moresby digs deeper, one question emerges: did Sheringham unwittingly describe the victim-and their killer?A genre-defying gem from the Golden Age of Detective Fiction, Murder in the Basement delivers a mystery as thought-provoking as it is entertaining; with sharp wit, period charm, and a daring narrative twist.Praise for Murder in the Basement:\"[Anthony Berkeley's] tale of petty rivalries, affairs, and revenge plots is so deliciously entertaining. [Murder in the Basement is] a pioneering example of the \"whowasdunin\" that, like that corpse in the basement, richly deserves exhumation.\" - Kirkus Reviews\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51975979991328,"sku":"NEW1728261244","price":11.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/murder-in-the-basement-a-clever-british-mystery-with-literary-clues-british-library-crime-classics-1728261244","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
