Measure for Murder by Clifford Witting is a classic British mystery set in a small English village, where an amateur theater production takes a deadly turn. As the townspeople prepare for their annual play, underlying tensions and hidden animosities begin to surface among the cast and crew. When one of the actors is murdered onstage during a rehearsal, what seemed to be a harmless production is overshadowed by dark secrets and unresolved rivalries.

Inspector Harry Charlton is called in to investigate and must navigate the complexities of village life to uncover the motives and identity of the killer. With keen observation and deductive skill, Charlton untangles a web of grudges, ambition, and jealousy as he delves into the lives of those connected to the production.

Witting’s novel combines traditional elements of the English village mystery with sharp characterization and suspenseful twists, making Measure for Murder an engrossing read for fans of classic detective fiction. The story not only showcases Witting's talent for plot and pacing but also highlights his wit and insight into human nature, as Inspector Charlton methodically brings the murderer to justice in this intriguing and atmospheric mystery.
