Paul Temple was no historian, but Mr Alfred Kelby was, and it is Kelby who has been killed by someone who obviously wanted that diary very badly indeed. Temple started on the case with a fair amount of trepidation. And what had already seemed a complicated case ran further into the gloom of the past and helped to tumble some pretty important skeletons out of the cupboard of political intrigue."@en

Reed had entrusted Kelby with a sensational diary written by Margaret Spender, the mistress of Lord Delamore, containing several clues pointing to Delamore's murderer. When Kelby is strangled and the diary stolen, it seems the two events are connected. But could there be another motive for Kelbys murder."
