About This Book

A late‑night call brings a physician to a fashionable London lodging where a young woman has been wounded by a firearm amid a gathering of her brother and several male acquaintances. Initial accounts and uneasy witnesses give rise to puzzling contradictions; servants' observations, telegrams, and household papers expand the inquiry. Systematic deduction, interviews with relatives and visitors, and attention to small clues reveal concealed ties, conflicting motives and surprising explanations that gradually clarify how the shooting occurred and explain the household's secretive behavior.
