The Case of the Gilded Fly is by Edmund Crispin. The first in the historical fiction Gervase Fen mystery series. Gervase Fen is a Professor of Literature at Oxford, he also dabbles in solving crimes. When a repertory company comes to Oxford to produce a play, Fen plans to enjoy a meeting with an old friend who is a poet and see the play. Then one of the actors is found dead, the police say suicide, but Fen says murder. Who is right? A charming cozy mystery complete with references to literature throughout.
