Synopsis
Ironic that a man who was twice kidnapped by brigands and who once nearly died at sea should have his death the subject of an inquest in a peaceful and picturesque English village. But the famous--and infamous--Sir James Hart was not a man to live--or die--by the rules.
The challenge of the mystery, not the incongruity of its setting, is what sets Lord Alfred Tigraines on a search for Hart's killer. Lord Alfred, a man-of-the-world and a scholar, counts the quest for knowledge as his prime inspiration, whether in archaeology, horticulture--or crime.
The local police have arrested Sir James' maid, the daughter of Lord Tigraines gardener. But Tigraines is not satisfied with their case, nor even with the work of Scotland Yard, which sends to the scene its most brilliant detective. As Lord Alfred embarks on an investigation of his own, the reader is led step-by step to an extraordinary and unexpected solution.
