Detective-Superintendent Budd is a busy man.
In Thatchford on a minor investigation, calling on his old friend Superintendent Hawkins, he's asked to help with a murder mystery. One man has been stabbed, two of his business associates have been threatened. Then another murder takes place in a locked room with police guards outside.
The case bristles with difficulties, but Budd sifts all the clues with his usual thoroughness, and exposes a dastardly plot.
