About this listen

Graham and Joan Bendix have apparently succeeded in making that eighth wonder of the modern world, a happy marriage. And into the middle of it there drops, like a clap of thunder, a box of chocolates.

Joan Bendix is killed by a poisoned box of liqueur chocolates that cannot have been intended for her to eat. The police investigation rapidly reaches a dead end. Chief Inspector Moresby calls on Roger Sheringham and his Crimes Circle - six amateur but intrepid detectives - to consider the case.

The evidence is laid before the Circle, and the members take it in turn to offer a solution. Each is more convincing than the last, slowly filling in the pieces of the puzzle until the dazzling conclusion.

Berkeley did it best

This was a fun mystery told in a unique format. Berkeley is wonderful at writing clever solutions which make sense for his mysteries, which is why it’s a shame that subsequent authors felt the need to add two more plausible endings. I thought the ending Berkeley wrote was best and the novel should have just ended there.
