A horticulturist and amateur sleuth roots out an irritating
professor's killer in the Nero Award-winning mystery series. An
unpleasant man in every respect, university professor Herbert
Ungley is exceedingly vain. One morning, his landlady catches her
cat coming in with Ungley's hairpiece between its teeth. It's clear
something has happened to the old grouch, because he would never be
caught without his toupee. Ungley is found in the yard behind his
social club, with his head bashed in and his baldness plain for the
world to see. Although the police are content to call it an
accident, sleuthing horticulturalist Peter Shandy is unconvinced,
and finds there are too many unanswered questions: How did Ungley
come to have such a bulging bank account? Who was Ungley's
long-lost heir, and what did he have to do with the professor's
lost hair? And whose is the second body in the woods? Shandy must
answer these questions and more if he's to discover who pulled the
rug out from the balding corpse.
