TTR: Murder at Mill Cottage
Part One: Dr Sullivan in Practice
(All Ages, Sarah Jane Smith, Harry Sullivan, Miss Marple and various other supporting characters from a certain 45 year old TV show).
Edit: I've just done something weird to my entry again. Oh, well. There must be a html code out of place, but it's hiding when I g to look. (I've got to get better at this.) I just realised the below doesn't actually sound like the story, which is a mock-Agatha Christie mystery (I can't quite claim parody) with Harry as narrator & village GP. If I explain too much more about why & the joke I'm having (with myself if no one else), it'll give away too many clues about whodunnit. Well, assuming anyone cares... But put Harry and Sarah in a Miss Marple - don't they fit nicely? - and then think about The Murder of Roger Ackroyd...
Harry's the local GP in Nether St Yorick, Sarah the journalist who's arrived just as there's a murder. Together they attempt to solve the mystery, but find there are some things that should be left to little old ladies.
My latest This Time Round effort, the idea shamelessly stolen from Helen Fayle, who should have kept something that priceless better guarded. (That Harry and Sarah should be the leads in an Agatha Christie type village murder mystery).
I'm posting it here because I think the idea's general enough to appeal outside TTR, plus I can give Miss Marple italics here (& writing Miss Marple without italics is not easy).
