Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? (I think this is the wrong answer for many reasons but it popped in to my head so I blurted it out).
Because of the questioning at the beginning asks about a turtle on its back (iirc)
Is it "Small Gods" ?

No (Is that a literary novel?)

You're probably confusing it with "Do Robots Imagine Battery Powered Terrapins?" by Richard K. Phil
You've been hiding your light under a bushel, haven't you? You are correct of course.
It's Terry Pratchett. The Turtle/Tortise is the God Om

I know that, I questioned whether it is considered a literary novel.

When was the last time a monarch of this country was murdered?

Would Charles I count on a technicality? If not him, then how about Lady Jane Grey?
Edward V is the last one to be 'murdered' in secret.

I don't recall any monarch being accused of murder but I'm not too hot on history, the nearest I can think of is Henry VIII, he could be said to have murdered his wives.

No...
However, I realised I missed out a word in the original question which has now been corrected. For that, I can only apologise and beg to draw your attention to the edited question

A talent that was momentarily distracted by a car crash outside

Would this be a reference to King George V's death being hastened by his Royal Physician in 1936?

Yes - the nurse by his bedside was ordered to give the injection but she refused to do so saying it was lethal and murder... So the Doctor did it. Regardless of if you think it was the kindest thing to do, it is murder...

And done in order that the news of the King's death was announced in the following morning's "Times" rather than the "less appropriate evening journals." It's no wonder the doctor kept his journal secret until after his death!

What thread might be said to link a good story, like say any of the Hornblower tales, with a piece of wool or hemp rope?

At my age I really shouldn't have known that, my excuse is that I had just been watching Spaceballs in which a spaceship transforms into a maid with a vacuum cleaner.
