Payment Deferred by CS Forester

Most famous for his Hornblower series, Forester wrote three seminal psychological thrillers at the start of his career that took crime writing in a new direction, portraying ordinary, desperate people committing monstrous acts.

In Payment Deferred, set in 1926, William Marble, a bank clerk living in south London with his wife Annie and their two children, is desperately worried about money and is in grave danger of losing his house and job. An unexpected visit by a young relative with an inheritance tempts William to commit a heinous crime.

This is one of three plays posted when I was saving programmes at 64kbps some years ago.  I posted them in the Whodunit Group using ge.tt and they don't work anymore.

 If anyone would like the other two, let me know.
