J. B. Priestley - An Inspector Calls | Play

Get a head start on your revision with this copy of An Inspector Calls. Written by the English dramatist J. B. Priestley, the three-act play takes place on a night in April 1912, and focuses on the wealthy Birling family. They're celebrating the engagement of Sheila Birling to Gerald Croft, which is not only happy news for the families involved but also for their businesses, when they're interrupted by a surprise visit from an inspector. 

Inspector Goole is investigating the suicide of a young working class girl, and during his questioning it seems that just about every one of the party-goers could have had something to do with her death. As their guilty secrets slowly unravel over the course of the night, will they uncover the true cause of the girl's death - or discover something more sinister?
