From Back Cover: Time seems suspended amid the granit crags and black peat bogs of the Scottish Highlands...Celtic rains wrap everything in an eerie light thhey call the gloaming. It is here that Chief Inspector Ross takes his long-overdue vacation, fishing on the river Spey. When actress Claudia Furnival invites the taciturn inspector to dine with her party at the hotel, he readily accepts. They are attractive young people who will help the pass the evening pleasantly. He notes, however that Claudia appears nervous, insisting that their rented cottage in Balnacoil is haunted and things have gone missing. He also senses an argument lingering in the air. But nothing prepares him for the next day's news, when he learns that Claudia, her twin sister, and their husbands have been viciously murdered - and a local shepherd charged with the crimes. While the local constabulary is under pressure to close the case, Ross fears that shepherd Danny Blaine is not their man. With the aid of his fiercely loyal Welsh assistant, Owen Davies, the good Inspector decides to do a little snooping on his own. He will discover that nothing is what it appears... and his vacation is fated to be merely a busman's holiday...
