Corpse at the Carnival by George Bellairs
It was holiday time in Douglas and the town was alive with the local carnival. As the carnival sweeps down the promenade an elderly man, who was peacefully gazing out to sea, is found murdered by a knife thrust in his back. Was he merely an anonymous victim, known casually by a few locals as Uncle Fred, or was there something more sinister afoot? Superintendent Littlejohn, calling to visit his old friend, the Rev Caesar Kinrade, Archdeacon of Man, is called upon to help the local inspectors with the case. Littlejohn's insightful questioning soon reveals the many layers of the strange life of Uncle Fred. But who wanted him dead?GEORGE BELLAIRS was the pen name of Harold Blundell (1902-1985), a famous Manchester banker and philanthropist who wrote a popular series of detective fiction involving Thomas Littlejohn that lasted nearly four decades.
