Long inhabited by a collection of profoundly offbeat locals, there has been a recent influx of the newly rich and well to do arriving in the village of Cotten Abbas…and not everyone is happy about it. New arrivals are receiving anonymous letters that know a little too much about dark secrets and dirty laundry. Gervase Fen is summoned to the scene, but soon finds more than he bargained for. A suicide on Friday, a murder by Sunday, and some villagers that seem hell bent on keeping this mystery unsolved.

London zu Beginn der 50er Jahre. Gervase Fen, Literaturprofessor aus Oxford und Gelegenheitsdetektiv, arbeitet als Experte bei der Produktion eines Films über den großen Dichter Alexander Pope, als eine grauenvolle Nachricht das Filmstudio erschüttert: Die junge und aufstrebende Schauspielerin Gloria Scott stürzte sich von der Waterloo Bridge direkt in ihren Tod. Ein tragischer, wenn auch unverständlicher Selbstmord. So scheint es jedenfalls, bis herauskommt, dass Gloria Scott nicht ihr echter Name war.

"Im Grunde bin ich ein Naturwissenschaftler, den es reizt, Abstecher in die trügerische Literaturwissenschaft zu unternehmen. Das erkennen Sie auch an meinem klaren und präzisen Verstand." England Ende der 40er Jahre. Oxford-Professor und Exzentriker Gervase Fen, wie er selbst betont, der einzige Literaturwissenschaftler der Kriminalliteratur, der je Detektiv wurde, hat es sich in den Kopf gesetzt, Lokalpolitiker zu werden. Das Dörfchen Sanford, in das es ihn für seinen Wahlkampf verschlägt, erscheint zunächst ruhig und friedlich. Doch der Schein trügt.

England in den 40er Jahren. Beim Oxforder Opernensemble steht die erste Aufführung von Wagners Meistersingern nach dem 2. Weltkrieg auf dem Plan. Eine der Hauptrollen übernimmt der überaus begabte, aber ebenso unbeliebte Sänger Edwin Shorthouse. Jedenfalls, bis man ihn nach einer Probe erhängt in seiner Garderobe findet. Selbstmord? Wohl kaum. Schon bald danach kommt es zu einem zweiten Mord. Der Tote war ein junger Chorsänger und aufstrebender Opernkomponist. Oxford Professor und Amateurdetektiv Gervase Fen ist ratlos und steht vor einem Rätsel.
