The wife of the celebrated barrister Hugh Quarrenden and another man die, apparently after drinking a gin cocktail aboard the yacht *Lonicera*. Dr Priestley deduces that the drinks had been poisoned, but has to work out who would want to kill the couple. Before long he discovers that they both have complex private lives.
