A respite from rough tough stuff is provided by Dr. Blow (expert on English poets) and Prof. Manciple (numismatologist) when they investigate which body is whose in a double death and gleefully cause the yard's Inspector Harte extra trouble. The Isle of Wight, a castle, inheritances and a complete criss-cross of evidence, permit Blow and Manciple, abetted by the equally elderly, doughty spinster sister of one corpse, to enjoy their ""Jaunts"" and worry out an answer academically. Polite and potty.
