The Corpus Delicti is a short story by Melville Davisson Post, first published in 1917. This story is a compelling example of Post's ability to blend mystery, crime, and psychological insight into a tightly woven narrative. It is a great example of Post’s approach to detective fiction, characterized by a twisty plot, a strong emphasis on the criminal justice system, and a focus on human nature.
