Joseph Muller of the Imperial Austrian police is small, plain and humble, partly because a miscarriage of justice once sent him to prison. Here a man is found dead, a willow twig is broken, an evening paper and a lamp that went out become clues, and Muller works patiently through servants, electricians and memories to clear the wrongly suspected.
