The headmistress of High Fell Hall, an expensive boarding school for girls near Richmond, asks Dr
Mills Sanderson to help two pupils with their studies over the summer. Her duties have hardly begun
when one of the girls, Cecile Fleurot, daughter of a French diplomat, drowns while playing Ophelia in
the school production of Hamlet. Her death appears to be an accident but then another pupil is
reported missing. Meanwhile Mills discovers that the skeletal remains she is excavating on a building
site in Gilling West may be more than just bones "of antiquity".
