Comrie and Hera are planning to marry but, before taking the risk of setting up as legal life-partners, they decide on an unusual test of compatibility: they embark on a long, sometimes arduous pilgrimage along part of Scotland's West Highland Way. The fact that such a project is thought necessary indicates that doubts exist--and matters are not helped when, lost on the moors in a heavy mist they come upon the corpse of a murdered man.
