An ambitious, unrecognised Washington policeman is drawn into the Jeffrey-Moore affair: a young bride, Veronica, found dead in a room of the old Moore house that has a dark history of its own. As gossip, a dog, a bow of ribbon and a filigree ball come into play, he tries to solve a case that has baffled his superiors.
