What to expect
Horace Manning - scientist, recluse, and closed book even to his friends - is found dead in his study at four a.m., following a dinner in honour of his daughter's engagement. An ivory-handled carving-knife rests between his shoulder blades as the houseguests gather round to witness the awful crime. The telephone line has been sabotaged - a calculated murder has been committed.
Rewinding twelve hours, the events of the afternoon and evening unfold, revealing a multitude of clues and motives from a closed cast of suspects, until the narrative reaches four a.m. again - then races on to its riveting conclusion at four p.m. as the reader is led twice round the clock.
