Accident ...or murder? Detective Inspector Hardcastle's seemingly
simple investigation turns more complicated, in his latest case
June 1918. A patrolling constable discovers the body of Georgina
Cheney, wife of a naval commander, in the basement area of a house
in Westminster. At first it is thought to be suicide or even a
tragic accident. But as Divisional Detective Inspector Ernest
Hardcastle of the A or Whitehall Division of the Metropolitan
Police begins to investigate - ably assisted by Detective Sergeant
Charles Marriott - they soon discover a different story. It is
clear that the woman was murdered, and revelations about the
victim's previous life in Malta arouse Hardcastle's interest. But
things are destined to get even more complicated for Hardcastle,
when he is assigned two further murder cases by Detective Chief
Inspector Frederick Wensley, head of the CID at New Scotland Yard.
Could they be connected? This may be a puzzle too tricky even for
Hardcastle to solve ...
