Eliza is not happy when Higgins buys a snazzy roadster. Her misgivings prove correct when he becomes injured in a motor car crash. Forced to play nursemaid, Eliza is thrilled to accept an invitation to a house party from Lord Ashmore and his bride, the former Clara Eynsford-Hill.

After another guest turns up dead, it's possible that more than the fox will die on the next hunt. Before that happens, Eliza and the Professor must discover who may have a little bit of blood on their hands.« less
