Handsome Mark Callender did not die the way a well brought up young gentleman should. He was found hanging by his neck, a lipstick stain on his mouth and a picture of a nude girl nearby. The official verdict was suicide, but his artistocratic father suspected murder, and hired fledgling detective Cordelia Gray to investigate. As this determined young lady followed a twisting trail of guilgy secrets and shameful sins, she soon reached the conclusion that the nicest people do the nastiest things.
