Summary

Superintendent Perry Trethowan is returning to London with his wife, after visiting his difficult family in Northumberland. Driving through the Yorkshire Dales their car breaks down, and they find themselves stranded in a small village. Taking refuge in the local pub for the evening, the pair are joined by Miss Edith Wing, a seemingly unremarkable woman with an extraordinary document in her possession. Is this really an undiscovered novel by one of the Brontë sisters - sure to be a literary sensation - or simply an extremely clever forgery? But what starts out as a harmless diversion for the determined Trethowan, soon turns into a hunt for a vicious attacker.
