Una barca si arena sulle coste del Suffolk. A bordo c'è il cadavere del famoso giallista Maurice Seton. Le mani gli sono state mozzate: un macabro dettaglio che lo stesso Seton aveva inserito nel progetto del suo nuovo libro. Suo malgrado l'ispettore Adam Dalgliesh, in vacanza nella regione, viene coinvolto nel caso dagli amici e dai vicini di casa del morto. Un gruppetto di persone rispettabili. In apparenza. Ma con troppi segreti e troppi rancori nascosti. Una nuova, inquietante sfida all'acume investigativo di Dalgliesh.

Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh hatte sich auf ruhige Ferien im Cottage seiner Tante an der einsamen Küste von Suffolk gefreut. Lange, windumtoste Spaziergänge, Tee vor knisterndem Kaminfeuer, heißer Buttertoast - das war seine Vorstellung von einer wohlverdienten Pause. Doch alle Hoffnung auf Ruhe wird schnell durch einen Mord erschüttert. Die verstümmelte Leiche eines ortsansässigen Krimi-Autors wird in einem kleinen Boot an der Küste angetrieben - und schon ist Adam Dalgliesh in eine weitere, besonders makabre Ermittlung verwickelt.

Ein durchdringender Schrei stört die abendliche Ruhe. Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh verlässt überstürzt sein Literaten-Treffen, um in die nahegelegene psychiatrische Klinik zu eilen - wo er eine Frauenleiche mit einem Meißel im Herzen entdecken muss. Hinter der unauffälligen Fassade stellt sich die vornehme Nervenklinik bald als Intrigennest heraus. Und der erfolgsverwöhnte Dalgliesh beginnt an sich zu zweifeln, als sich der Mörder als intellektuell ebenbürtig - und mehr als bereit zu weiteren Taten - erweist.

Am nächsten Morgen jedoch wird Sally ermordet aufgefunden.

The people won and now Mareth is Lord Protector of Edland.
