Below the cliffs of a remote New England cove, cut off by land and sea, a woman’s body is found on the sand. Professor Kent, a scientist with a taste for detection, joins the inquiry, and a mysterious young woman, a portrait, a monocle and a shrewd local businessman draw him into a puzzle with more than one secret.
