Murder At Mullings--A 1930s Country House Murder Mystery (2014)
“But it did come as something of a let-down to George Bird when he took over the Dog and Whistle in January of 1929. He was at that time a widower, approaching fifty, childless but with a godson living in Bexleyheath, where he had himself been born and bred. The boy’s name was Jim. Much to his parents’ pride, he had passed the scholarship to Dartford Grammar School when he was eleven and was now at university reading art history. No surprise there. Even as a tot he could draw a treat, George rem...embered. He wrote to Jim regularly and met up with him as often as possible, knowing the lad to be genuinely fond of him. At his last pub George had taken some good-natured ribbing from old buffers who claimed to be able to recite Jim’s letters by heart and said they couldn’t understand why the lad wasn’t up on a column along with Lord Nelson in Trafalgar Square.
