Taken from the VHS cover:
Another Ruth Rendell Mystery which finds Wexford doggedly pursuing a course of action which increasingly isolates him from Inspector Burden, his wife, Dora, and all those around him.
Convinced he knows who committed the murder of Angela Hathall, he has no evidence to support his theory. He is doubted by friends and colleagues alike and begins to despair as he believes the murderer will get away with it.
Will the famous Wexford instinct and perseverance win out in the end?
