The Duke of Denver, accused of murder, stands trial for his life in the House of Lords. Naturally, his brother Lord Peter Wimsey is investigating the crime but does not uncover the truth until Wimsey himself is attacked. Riddlesdale Lodge is a Wimsey family retreat filled with country pleasures and the thrill of the hunt - until the game turns up human. Found lying in the dark, in slippers and his dinner jacket, is the body of Captain Denis Cathcart - the fiance of Lord Peter's sister Lady Mary. The inquest returns a verdict of wilful murder against Gerald, Duke of Denver - Peter and Mary's own brother. As Gerald's trial looms, Peter is determined to find out the truth. But why does his brother refuse to co-operate with his investigation? Is he attempting to cover up his own guilt...or someone else's?
