O knihe
Detective Superintendent Charles Blower goes to Benfield House, a renovated
Georgian country house in Kent, at the behest of his good friend Alex Pike who, with
his wife Barrie, is author of a series of detective novels. Both are keen amateur detectives.
This is an intriguing case for Blower since the crime, the unusual stabbing of a woman
conveyancer surveying an apartment in the house whose owner works abroad, appears
motiveless. It is set up to look accidental. However, his intuition and experience as
a Metroplolitan Police Detective, leads him to work with the Kent County Police
Inspector who originally dealt with the crime scene. Through this association, and the
eruption of a series of burglaries in the county, Blower begins to wonder if burglary
was a factor in the woman's murder. Some dubious characters, including the
houseowner's son, recently imprisoned for aggravated burglary, come under suspicion.
It takes persistence, application and lateral thinking for several burglars, and the
murderer, to be apprehended.
The Annual Fete on the village green fronting Benfield House, provides the backdrop
to an eventful outcome, which is concluded after a car chase through the Kent
countryside to its coast.
