Escaping the cold and his troubles, Supt. Jury books a room a friendly West Yorkshire Incc, The Old Silent. But within moments of his arrival, the calm is shattered by a bullet, and Jury becomes the sole witness to a murder--how convenient. As the case widens into a trangled array of crossed lives and multiple motives, Jury and his colleague Melrose Plant are intertwined with a trendy American novelist, an aristocratic family, a famous rock star, and a fierce little girl and the unseen murdered who stalks the somber and desolate moors. Oh, could it be any more British!
