C.H.B. Kitchin (1895-1967) was a british novelist who also wrote detective novels. He was a wealthy man because of his inheritance and also a homosexual. Angry as he was for his novels didn't reach wider audience, he wrote detective novel Death Of My Aunt. People liked it and he continued to write detective novels. He was also a homosexual. This particular book is somewhat a blend of serious literature and detective fiction. It is told in chapters from a point view of four characters. After head of the family died of a gunshot that was rules by suicides, four people except something in return. Ronnie is father son and he hopes to buy the house for his communists friend, but Isabel, father's daughter don't like it. There is also Dora and Stephen Payne who also want a part of a cake. As things progresses, many unusual things happen. Good crime novel which is on the list of H. R. Keating beat crime novels.
