Basil Railsdon is on his way to becoming Conservative MP for the village of Loxford. A wealthy widower, he is also about to make an exemplary second marriage to elegant socialite, Henrietta Legge. But then a freak accident changes everything. And suddenly the life Basil had planned seems to be on the edge of ruin. Things are complicated further by the arrival of a half-sister Basil had never known about. And when his newly-discovered sister, Laura, is found dead on his property, Basil's prospects take a turn for the worse. Scotland Yard's Chief Superintendent Pollard and Detective Inspector Toye are called in to investigate Laura's death. Was it a freak accident? Or is Basil now a murder suspect?
