It is the early months of the Second World War, and the inhabitants of the provincial town of Willington are just coming to terms with the idea of petrol shortages, rationing, occasional air-raid warnings, and the black-out. The last thing they expect is for three mysterious corpses to appear in their midst on the same gloomy, rain-swept night. Eccentric Home Office psychiatrist and amateur sleuth Mrs. Bradley is called in to solve the puzzling case, and finds herself a potential victim of the murderer.
