Authoress Harriet Vane stands accused of murdering her former lover . . . using the very method employed in her latest detective novel. But Lord Peter Wimsey, amateur detective, believes there is more behind the murder than a woman scorned.
With time running out, Lord Peter sets out to prove Miss Vane innocent, and turns his attention to the estranged family of the victim—and one family member in particular, now poised to inherit the family fortune.
