The prosperity of Pott Winckle is founded on a chamber pot; to be precise, on the fortunes of the Wibbley Ware Co. Ltd, a name to be conjured with in the world of domestic sanitary equipment. So when Cynthia, only daughter of Daniel Wibbley the Third, the town's tyrannical tycoon, is murdered, Scotland Yard is called in. Assigned to the case is the Metropolitan Police's most unwanted man, Chief Inspector Wilfred Dover, together with his reluctant assistant Sergeant MacGregor. Their investigations uncover a family feud deep in the suburban jungle where jealousy and-petty intrigue bristle behind every well-trimmed hedge. |
