In England in the later 1920s, the Honourable Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher, over a convalescent visit to the countryside, goes to visit three old school friends in the area. The three, all unmarried, have just lately bought a house together. These are an integral part of the era of "superfluous women" - raised expecting relationship and a family, but left without the prospects after more than 700,000 English men were killed in the Great War. Daisy and her man Alec - Detective Chief Inspector Alec Fletcher, of Scotland Lawn - get a Sunday lunch break with Daisy's friends, where one of the ladies mentions a wine beverage cellar below their house, which remains curiously locked, no key found. Alec offers to pick the lock, however when he opens the entranceway, what greets them is not really a cache of wine beverage however the stench of any long-dead body. And with that, what was a pleasant Weekend lunch has considered an unexpected change. Now Daisy's three friends will be the most apparent suspects in a murder and her man Alec is a witness, so he can't officially take over the analysis. So before the local detective, Inspector Underwood, can officially bring charges against her friends, Daisy is determined to make use of all her resources (Alec) and skills to resolve the unknown behind this perplexing locked-room crime.
