Journey into the heart of a ‚Äúrotten borough‚Äù and uncover its secrets. This term, rooted in the 18th century, represents a parliamentary constituency where few property owners had the power to elect a local member of parliament. But what happens when this system is replaced by a new one that still allows a select few to secretly profit from the boroughs finances? Following a narrow victory, a newly elected mayor, committed to reforming this corrupt system, is found mysteriously murdered in the Mayors Parlour. His young nephew, visiting from London, takes it upon himself to unravel this mystery and find the killer. The road to truth is fraught with challenges and the final revelation surprises him and many others. This captivating narrative by Nicholas Clifford promises intrigue and suspense at every turn.Copyright Retro Radio アート 政治・政府 政治学 文学史・文学批評
