At the Central Criminal Court, an eager crowd awaits the trial of Victoria Lamartine, an active participant in the Resistance during the war. She is now employed at the Family Hotel in Soho, where Major Eric Thoseby has been found murdered. Thoseby is believed to have fathered Lamartine's child, and the prosecution insist that his death is revenge for his abandonment of Lamartine and her arrest by the Gestapo. A last-minute change in Lamartine's defence counsel grants solicitor Nap Rumbold just eight days to prove her innocence.

In un pacifico villaggio della costa della Cornovaglia, un magistrato viene ucciso con una pallottola in testa. Nessun indizio, una sola sospettata, la nipote del morto. Ma in aiuto della polizia giunge il più sorprendente degli investigatori... Il reverendo Dodd, vicario di Boscawen, tranquillo villaggio sulla costa della Cornovaglia, trascorre le sue serate leggendo storie poliziesche davanti al focolare – ma non sia mai che anche solo l’ombra di un vero crimine possa venire a turbare la serena routine della sua parrocchia sul mare!

Una notte d'estate per le vie di Londra il sergente Wigan incontra un uomo visibilmente ubriaco. È Michael Fisk, un collezionista di libri rari, che finisce per contagiare il poliziotto con la sua stessa passione. Ma Wigan non può certo immaginare che si troverà coinvolto in un mondo bizzarro e molto pericoloso. Pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1956, un'indagine avvincente nel mondo del collezionismo librario che delizierà insieme gli accaniti bibliofili e gli appassionati del mistero.
