En una noche iluminada por la luna, un tranquilo pueblo inglés se ve perturbado por un asesinato inexplicable. Un policía local, al regresar de su patrulla nocturna, descubre un cadáver vestido de gala, ¡encerrado en el cepo de la plaza del pueblo! La víctima resulta ser Andrew Vereker, un hombre poco querido, lo que dificulta la tarea de identificar a los sospechosos. La familia Vereker, corrupta y excéntrica, no facilita la investigación. Este es otro caso para el ingenioso superintendente Hannasyde, quien se embarca en la búsqueda de un asesino tan astuto que pondrá a prueba sus habilidades detectivescas al límite.
Georgette Heyer was an English novelist and short-story writer, in both the Regency romance and detective fiction genres. Her writing career began in 1921, when she turned a story conceived for her ailing younger brother into the novel The Black Moth. In 1925 Heyer married George Ronald Rougier, a mining engineer. The couple spent several years living in Tanganyika Territory and Macedonia before returning to England in 1929. After her novel These Old Shades became popular despite its release during the General Strike, Heyer determined that publicity was not necessary for good sales. For the rest of her life she refused to grant interviews, telling a friend: "My private life concerns no one but myself and my family."
