Can Lord Peter Wimsey prove that Harriet Vane has not murdered her love with arsenic, and find the real murderer in time? As a mystery novelist, Harriet Vane knows all about poisons. And now she stands in the dock, on trial for her life, accused of murdering her former lover Philip Boyes by poisoning him with arsenic. The two had quarrelled bitterly, and Harriet admits to having purchased arsenic, strychnine, and prussic acid under false names - for the purpose of literary research, she claims. The judge considers her guilty as sin. But the trial results in a hung jury... Lord Peter Wimsey, observing proceedings, is positive that Harriet is innocent. Can evidence for the defence be found before she is re-tried?
