  Ambitious Scotland Yard Detective Sergeant Jack Gibbons calls on his friend, the wealthy man-about-town Phillip Bethancourt, for help with his latest case, the death of a middle-aged widower in a small town in the Cotswolds. What first appears to be an accident soon grows more interesting when tracing Charlie Bingham's movements on the evening of his death proves more difficult than expected. It seems Charlie was going to visit his girlfriend - but no one knows who she is. And when it turns out that Charlie was a very wealthy businessman, other suspects begin to pop up: his estranged daughter, who was in London on the evening in question, and an un-happy business partner who has no alibi.
