About this title

Synopsis

By the 16th of July the Master of Lonsdale was concerned, but not yet worried. Dr. Browne-Smith had passed through the porters lodge at approximately 8:15am on the morning of July 11th. And nobody had heard from him since. Plenty of time to disappear, through Morse. And plenty of time, too, for someone to commit murder...

From the Back Cover

Inspector Morse isn't sure what to make of the truncated body found dumped in the Oxford Canal, but he suspects it may be all that's left of an elderly Oxford don last seen boarding the London train several days before. Whatever the truth, the inspector knows it won't be simple -- it never is. As he retraces Professor Browne-Smith's route through a London netherworld of topless bars and fancy bordellos, his forebodings are fulfilled. The evidence mounts; so do the bodies. So Morse downs another pint, unleashes his pit bull instincts, and solves a mystery that defies all logic.
