An exquisite silver coffeepot in the shape of a locomotive is on
its way to Cardiff in the care of the young silversmith, Hugh
Kellow. But before he can deliver it a gruesome murder is
committed. Inspector Colbeck is confronted all too soon with
complications and with no shortage of suspects and he must sift
through layers of deceit to find the killer.Commissioned by wealthy
ironmaster Clifford Tomkins for his acquisitive wife, who wants it
to be the envy of all her friends and enemies, the coffeepot is
stolen. When a gruesome murder is committed at the Railway Hotel,
Winifred Tomkins is distraught. Caring little for the dead
silversmith, all she can think about is her missing treasure.
Inspector Colbeck and Sergeant Leeming of the Detective Department
are summoned to Wales from London by telegraph and they are soon
confronted by some additional crimes. The situation is complicated
by the arrival of a famous theatre company and by revelations of
illicit liaisons among members of the local high society. Colbeck
has to find the killer before it is too late."
