Description
Laurence Jago and his employer William Philpott have escaped to Laurence's hometown of Helston, Cornwall, seeking rest after their tumultuous escape from America. However, they soon find themselves entangled in the midst of a heated election that has the town's residents at odds with each other. When one of the two men eligible to vote dies under suspicious circumstances, Laurence is tasked with investigating on behalf of his old master, the Duke of Leeds. The case becomes increasingly complex due to the machinations of rival factions and the antics of Toby the Sapient Hog. As tensions rise, suspicion falls on the town doctor, Pythagoras Jago. As Laurence delves deeper into the mystery, he must navigate the treacherous landscape of Helston's politics and confront his own troubled past.
