Looking into the disappearance of any vicar's girl in London, the popular novelist and amateur detective Roger Sheringham is surprised to discover that the girl is already dead, found hanging from a screw by her own silk stocking. Accounts of similar fatalities across the capital bolster his conviction that is not a suicide cult but the work of any homicidal maniac out for vengeance - a anxious situation requiring anxious measures. Having established Roger Sheringham as an excellent but headstrong young sleuth who frequently made mistakes, trusted the wrong people and imbibed significant liquid refreshment, Anthony Berkeley took his controversial figure into much darker territory with The Silk Stocking Murders, a sensational novel about gruesome serial killings by an apparent psychopath bent on focusing on vulnerable young women.
