Adam Dalgliesh debe investigar el asesinato de la señora Bolam, la antipática administradora de la clínica Steen, un selecto centro psiquiátrico donde ingresan pacientes adinerados que valoran en igual medida la atención médica y la discreción.

Todo lo que Dalgliesh necesitaba era unas tranquilas vacaciones junto al mar, largos paseos, una taza de té al calor de la chimenea y, lo mejor de todo, nada de cadáveres ni pesquisas criminales.

James y lo llevará, de incógnita en incógnita, a intentar dilucidar un nuevo caso.

Det er en gammel tradtion, at landsbyens årlige kirkefest finder sted på godset Martingale.

I dette andet bind i serien om Scotland Yards dygtige detektiv, kriminalkommisær Adam Dalgliesh stilles han i et dilemma, han ikke har stået i før – han er oppe imod en begavet morder, som hele tiden er et skridt foran, og som sandsynligvis vil slå til igen.
