Matthew Bartholomew, doctor of medicine and fellow of Michaelhouse,
Cambridge, is travelling with a party from the college to accept
the gift of the living of a parish in Grundisburgh, Suffolk. One of
his companions, Unwin, an unworldly scholar, is to be installed as
priest. When they arrive, they are immediately thrust into the
machinations of local boundary disputes between three landowners,
but all such squabbles seem mere trivia when Unwin is murdered in
the very church which was to have been his home. While trying to
investigate a possible motive for his killing, Bartholomew
discovers that this is not the first unnatural death in the village
- deaths which everyone has put down to the curse of the
plague-dead village. He is of too practical a mind to believe the
superstitions, but is he wily enough to work out the real motive
behind the murders and who will gain from them?
