"When the fiancé of Lord Peter's sister, Mary, is found dead outside the conservatory of the family's Yorkshire shooting lodge, the evidence points in an unfortunate direction: their older brother, Gerald, the Duke of Denver. Lord Peter and his friend, Inspector Charles Parker, scour the lodge's grounds, finding tantalizing clues that include mysterious footprints and a cat-shaped charm. Lord Peter works to unravel a string of apparent coincidences, all the while not knowing whether the truth he seeks will save his brother--or condemn him"--Back cover.
