Before long, someone in “this” world also dies, and the police cannot be sure it is not suicide. Pünd’s creator, Alan Conway, cannot be located, and his desperate editor needs to find the final chapters so he can publish this series-ending book, thus saving the little publishing company from financial ruin. Suddenly, a break occurs in the case, and Pünd determinedly heads to apprehend the killer.Īt this point, the story jumps the rails and we abruptly get yanked into the “real world,” complete with persons that bear striking similarities to the citizens of Saxby-on-Avon. Suspects are all over the quiet little hamlet, together with myriad motives. He therefore travels to Saxby-on-Avon in an attempt to right his wrong before he is dead himself. Days later, a man in her village is killed, and Herr Pünd knows it is because of his refusal that he died. While he’s pondering his fate, a young woman comes to consult with him, and he turns her away. The famous detective might have enough strength to investigate one more murder, but he would much rather devote his limited time to a more personal project.
