Linda is having increasing difficulty coping with the dullness of life in the country and has succumbed to alcoholism, although she is able to keep this completely secret from everybody except John. So when John returns from a business trip to find his paintings slashed and Linda missing, later to be found dead, he cannot prove how unstable and violent she had become and the suspicions of the locals put him firmly in the frame for her murder.

Patrick and Jonathan Stagge were pen names under which Hugh Callingham Wheeler (1912-87), Richard Wilson Webb (1901-66), Martha Mott Kelley (1906-2005), and Mary Louise White Aswell (1902-84), collaborated to write detective fiction. Most of the stories were written by Webb and Wheeler in collaboration, or by Wheeler alone.
