Dolly Wycliffe and Edmund Caruthers, esquire, plan their new life together as man and wife. The wedding date has been set, the parish church reserved for the nuptials, and friends and family invited to attend. Their plans begin to unravel when Dolly pays a call on the vicar and discovers the poor man's head has been bashed with a paperweight. With blood on her clothes and her fingerprints on the weapon, she's considered the prime suspect. The clergyman dies from his wounds and the charges against Dolly are changed to murder.
She's sent to Holloway prison to await trial. Edmund has made a reputation for taking on difficult cases, but the vicar's murder has him stumped. With Dolly behind bars and time running out, he mustn't leave any stone unturned to find the killer.
