<i>"It was not until several weeks after he had decided to murder his wife that Dr. Bickleigh took any active steps in the matter."</i> The great and good of the county are out in force for the annual tennis party at the Bickleighs,' though few if any have talent or enthusiasm for the game. Like many an English custom, the party exists for other reasons. Charmingly mannered infidelity is now the most popular mode of entertainment in the small but exclusive Devonshire hamlet of Wyvern's Cross. Which is why, in his own garden, diminutive host Dr. Edmund Bickleigh is fighting desperately to conceal two things on his mind. A mounting passion for Gwynyfryd Rattery. And the certain conviction that he is going to kill his wife... France Iles turned the crime novel on its head with the brilliantly gripping tale of psychological suspense. Here, for the first time in crime fiction, knowing the identity of the muderer is only the beginning.
