Cambridge, 1933. On All Hallows' Eve, in a candlelit pew in ancient All Hallows
Church, Doctor Adelaide Hartest witnesses a stranger's dying moments. Adelaide
is just in time to hear his final confession: that he has plunged the dagger
into his own chest, and that his death will be a suicide, despite its suspicious
appearance.
But his confession isn't enough to halt an investigation. The victim, it is
revealed, is known to Scotland Yard, and his death is a matter of national
concern. Assistant Commissioner Joe Sandilands is sent up from London to
discover the truth. Thrown into a deadly ring of cloak-and-dagger intrigue and
high-society hedonism, Sandilands chases a phantom killer through Cambridge's
aristocracy, intelligentsia, cutting-edge researchers, and a clandestine ring of
female spies. What secret was the dead man hiding, and what is at stake?
