Présentation en quatrième de couverture -- Pour François Rivière (Libération), « Agatha Christie a longtemps été en France l'arbre dérobant aux amateurs de detective novels la forêt d'auteurs capables de leur faire éprouver l'ineffable plaisir de la déduction policière. Michael Innes est de ceux-ci. » De fait, si la personnalité d'Appleby peut sembler de prime abord comme effacée par une longue discipline de l'étude, son caractère en fait bien plus que le produit parfait d'une école de police moderne. Un esprit porté à la réflexion et à l'expérimentation, un sang-froid à toute épreuve qui ne lui interdit nullement le passage à l'action et qui traduit une éducation plus que libérale, tout ceci fait d'Appleby un grand détective à la fois intelligent et plein d'humour. Appleby, un héros libre. -- . Traduction (translation) : Traduit de l'anglais par François Lourbet.

Présentation en quatrième de couverture -- Lorsque la police annonce à Meg O'Hara la mort de son mari, celle-ci ne peut s'empêcher de ressentir un immense soulagement. Tyrannique et manipulateur, Robin O'Hara aurait été assassiné alors qu'il enquêtait sur la bande du Vautour pour le compte des services secrets anglais. Libre mais dans une situation financière précaire, Meg se fait à sa nouvelle vie. Mais lorsqu'elle reçoit des lettres signées par le mort, la peur reprend vite le pas sur ses certitudes. Bill Coverdale, un ami de longue date, secrètement amoureux d'elle, est le seul à la croire quand elle affirme que son mari est encore en vie. L'apparition d'une sulfureuse actrice et d'un mystérieux paquet pousse le couple à enquêter sur une affaire où faux-semblants et vérité se mêlent dangereusement. -- .
