A dead judge's wife is suspected of poisoning him and the Haymarket police think they have a foolproof case. They have undisclosed evidence she has been having an affair with a society artist plus the fact that a quantity of arsenic has been found in the judge's body. She appeals for help to McLevy though the case is not in his parish; there is an ambivalent quality to her, an elusive attraction that the Inspector can't resist. Nor can Leith's finest avoid the temptation of getting one over his Haymarket colleagues. Exclusive eBook-only edition.
