As Lady Phoebe and her betrothed say their vows of holy matrimony, a killer has vowed unholy vengeance on the town&#8217s chief inspector . . .June 1922: The blessed day has finally arrived. Phoebe Renshaw and Owen Seabright are to be wed, and lady&#8217s maid Eva Huntford could not be more delighted for her lady&#8217s happiness. But she is disturbed by one notable absence from the ceremony&#8212her beau, Police Constable Miles Brannock. When Miles finally does appear, breathlessly running into the reception at Foxwood Hall, he brings grim news: he&#8217s found Chief Inspector Isaac Perkins murdered, shot in his home in his favorite parlor chair with his own gun. &nbspA policeman naturally makes enemies, especially those of questionable character. In charge of finding his former boss&#8217s killer, Miles reviews the details of the crime scene. The murder weapon has been wiped clean and left on the table next to the remnants of the chief inspector&#8217s breakfast: sausage pasty and coffee reeking of a bit of whiskey. No sign of forced entry. A seemingly peaceful scene&#8212other than the bullet hole in the victim. &nbspBefore Miles can make much progress in his investigation, a Scotland Yard detective arrives in Little Barlow to take over the

case&#8212and promptly focuses his suspicions on the constable himself, who he reasons had motive and opportunity. Coming to their maid&#8217s defense, Phoebe and Owen postpone their honeymoon to join Eva in clearing her beau&#8217s good name and unmasking the identity of the true killer . . .
