A dead man dressed like a vicar is propped against a church wall, clutching the address of a dilapidated cottage that’s abandoned – except for a human skeleton inside. Inspector Witherspoon’s only prayer is to seek the counsel of his housekeeper and secret weapon, Mrs. Jeffries – who proves that a great crimesolver’s work is never done.
