When the wife of a gold magnate is found murdered on his Hampshire estate, the evidence points to the family’s young governess. But Sherlock suspects there’s more to the story than meets the eye. A peculiarly chipped stone, a note clutched in a corpse’s hand, and a set of twin revolvers. All of these clues point to an impossible crime with one resounding motive. Vengeance.
