During that time, a mysterious murder takes place with Jasper, under directions of Benelaius, untangling the dark plot. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story is told with a first-person point-of-view—a comparative rarity in D\u0026amp;D novels—in the form of an account written by the protagonist Jasper following the events of the novel. The style is light and humorous and, as one would expect for a murder mystery, it focuses on conversation and investigation, with few battles and little-to-no magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a story that explores small-town life, ordinary people, and intrigues in Faerûn rather than epic adventures and the affairs of great mages and gods. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chet Williamson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46952339275945,"sku":"9780786904860","price":14.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0424\/9518\/0962\/files\/murder.jpg?v=1775086650","url":"https:\/\/roseyravelstonbooks.com.au\/products\/murder-in-cormyr-forgotten-realms","provider":"RoseyRavelston Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
