Inspector Appleby is called to St Anthony's College, where the President has been murdered in his Lodging. Scandal abounds when it becomes clear that the only people with any motive to murder him are the only people who had the opportunity - because the President's Lodging opens off Orchard Ground, which is locked at night, and only the Fellows of the College have keys.

I didn't really enjoy this as much as I thought I would. I found it difficult to follow at times. I thought it lacked any real suspense and by the end I just wanted to finish the book rather than being keen to solve the mystery. I also found the end very drawn out and long winded.
