Death on May Morning by Max Dalman
“From behind him came a slight thud; then a curious, strangled gasp. Even as he turned, the red-haired young man who had been standing on the other side of him crumpled and fell.”
There’s more than a discordant note, after the traditional 6.00am May Morning carol-singing on top of Oxford’s Magdalen College tower, when the student son of a South American dictator is struck down dead.
Set against the backdrop of this rarified academic community, unlikely duo, Chief Inspector Osborne and journalist, Philip Hardman, endeavour to find the key to whodunnit and why?
Son of prolific writer, Ottwell Binns, Max Dalman (1905-1951), was a journalist, publisher and author of fifteen detective stories, including Death on May Morning (1938).
