Spoof/satire

 

murderedmiser

A literary flashback combining the creations of Charles Dickens (A Christmas Carol) and Erle Stanley Gardner, this courtroom melodrama poses the questions: What if Ebenezer Scrooge was murdered, found strangled in his bed with a bell cord knotted around his neck and a stake of holly driven through his heart? And what if the man charged with the crime was his own employee, Bob Crachit? Appearances are made by a youthful court reporter, Charles Dickens, and that most famous of English barristers… Sir Percy Mason.
