Samenvatting:

'[P.D James had] huge humanity and she really took on social issues. Had she been alive today she'd have been a huge commentator in the culture wars debate.' Bertie Carvel, on playing Dalgliesh

An Adam Dalgliesh Mystery

Two men lie in a welter of blood in the vestry of St Matthew's Church, Paddington, their throats brutally slashed. One is Sir Paul Berowne, a baronet and recently resigned Minister of the Crown, the other an alcoholic vagrant. Dalgliesh and his team, set up to investigate crimes of particular sensitivity, are faced with a case of extraordinary complexity as they discover the Berowne family's veneer of prosperous gentility conceals ugly and dangerous secrets.
