Following a suspicious passing in a mine in Burnsend, Gently and Bacchus find out about the tensions and relationships in a community which has been ripped wide apart by politics. They also find out about some grudges that go back to the Second World War.
Chief Inspector George Gently of Scotland Yard is an old-fashioned policeman who has gained respect but few friends through his single-minded pursuit of law-breakers and his disgust with the corruption in the police force.
Gently decides to retire after the cuddle of his wife, but not before solving his final case. Using his unusual combination of reason, deduction and a somewhat jaded understanding of man's nature, with the ambitious Bacchus by his side, will Gently's justice prevail?
