Description: An anonymous letter sent to Larkwood’s Prior accuses Peter Henderson, an academic celebrity renowned for daring ideas, of a grotesque murder: the calculated killing of Jenny, his disabled partner, believed by everyone to have died peace­fully two years previously from a sudden attack of cancer. But for this letter there is no evidence, no suspect and no crime.
