And when a corpse is discovered close to the homes of Bernard's estranged family members, they are all under suspicion.

Detective Superintendent Pollard and Scotland Yard's Detective Sergeant Toye are brought in to investigate, and they are hard-put to unmask the murderer from among the towns respectable, well-heeled citizens.

Everyone has their secrets, but whose drove them to murder …?
