Sheila Broome died in the wintry isolation of the Devon countryside. Ivy Childess was strangled in the heart of London's Mayfair.
Devon's stubborn Divisional Police Commander Brian Macalvie is convinced that both killings are the work of one man. And so Richard Jury finds himself embroiled in a murder hunt that ranges from the sleazy backstreets of Mayfair's Shepherd Market and the faded glamour of out-of-season Brighton to the genteel environs of a Somerset country house. With the aid of the aristocratic Melrose Plant and the well-intentioned but erratic Worboys family, Jury begins a relentless quest for a killer who shows nothing but cold-blooded enjoyment at every murder . . .
