From the Publisher:
Scotland Yard's Richard Jury and his sidekick Melrose Plant converge on a northern fishing village to sniff out clues on a killer and his victim...

Stacked against the cliffs on the shore of the North Sea and nearly hidden by fog, the town of Rackmoor seems a fitting place for murder. But the stabbing death of a costumed young woman has shocked the close-knit village. When Richard Jury arrives on the scene, he's pulled up short by the fact that no one is sure who the victim is, much less the killer. Her questionable ties to one of the most wealthy and influential families in town send Jury and the horse-shy Melrose Plant on a deadly hunt to track down a very wily killer.

There was a murder in the quaint North Sea village of Rackmoor. The body of a mysterious woman in a mummer's costume lay sprawled on a backwater street. Half her face had been painted black, the half white, and the blood on her satin blouse had already turned a deep, dark red.

Who was she? Who had killed her? Inspector Richard Jury of Scotlad Yard drank a pint with the local Yorkshire lads in a cozy pub to get some startling answers. And he would have to join the landed gentry in a deadly ride to the hounds if he wanted to track down a very foxy killer.
