The radio play Murder of Quality, adapted from John le Carré's novel, was broadcast on BBC's Saturday Night Theatre. It is a suspenseful mystery and part of le Carré's George Smiley series.
The plot centers around the investigation of a murder at an elite British boarding school, Carne School, which has a reputation for both academic excellence and strict discipline. The victim, a master at the school named Roy Slater, is found dead under suspicious circumstances, and Smiley, now retired from the intelligence service, is called in to investigate.
Smiley is drawn into a web of secrets and hidden tensions within the school’s hierarchy, uncovering a mix of personal and professional motives among the staff and students. Throughout the investigation, Smiley uses his characteristic insight into human nature to reveal the deep flaws and unresolved conflicts that lie beneath the school's outwardly respectable surface.
The play combines le Carré's sharp commentary on class, power, and the complexities of human relationships with his trademark suspenseful storytelling. The adaptation retains the atmospheric tension of the original novel while showcasing Smiley's methodical approach to unraveling the truth.
