As he drove his chief to Kidlington, Lewis returned the conversation to where it had begun. "You haven't told me what you think about this fellow Owens - the dead woman's next-door neighbour"
"Death is always the nex-door neighbour" said Morse sombrely
The murder of a young woman...A cryptic "seventeenth-century" love poem... And a photograph of a mystery grey-haired man...
More than enough to set Chief Inspector E. Morse on the trail of a killer
And its a trail that leads him to Lonsdale College, where the contest between Julian Storrs and Dr Denis Cornford for the coveted position of Master is hotting up.
But then Morse faces a greater, far more personal crisis...
