SYNOPSIS
A Mystery Comedy by Sam Bobrick.
Death pays a call to an English household and discovers he's come to the wrong house. This is the first time he has ever made such a mistake. Slowly he comes to realize that people are dying without his help. He feels totally usurped and helpless. Suspecting treachery of the highest magnitude, England's most cunning detective, Inspector Edward Mirabelle, is called in to get to the bottom of things. -- Good naturedly twits the Agatha Christie-style murder mystery genre...Bobrick has a wickedly clever sense of humor and the laughs pile up vigorously and hilariously as DEATH IN ENGLAND wends its way through it's remarkable premise to its unexpected (and wholly satisfying) conclusion. -- Think "Columbo" meets "Death Takes A Holiday".
