Set in 1961, this tale takes London florist Felix Smythe and close friend Professor Cedric Dillworthy to Suffolk once more. Their hopes of a trouble-free visit are sorely dashed by the gruesome murder of a highly respectable resident - an event which seems to be sinisterly linked with the bizarre killing in Cambridge of a cleric with murky proclivities. Holidaying in Southwold is the ancient and nosy Cambridge don, Professor Aldous Phipps; and both he and Cedric and Felix become increasingly entangled in both murders - an involvement that the wily Aldous relishes, but which terrifies the nervous Felix. An earlier death further complicates matters; and all three disturb the peace of not only Cedric and Felix but also the Cambridge police and Southwold's Inspector Jennings, who, being newly promoted is anxious to prove himself.
