The owner of The Queen Bess, Shirley, is a superb cook. Her partner, Bob, is surly and has some intimidating friends. The new waiter in the breakfast room tells them that his predecessor, Richie, has disappeared, but is no loss as he was lazy and unreliable. No one worries about Richie. They worry when Claire and her tourists find his body in a nearby field. Mark, Claire's husband who is a Detective Inspector, rushes to help. After reviewing the situation, he doesn't see much to concern himself with until his uncle is attacked. Then, he's keen to investigate. The local coppers don't want Mark involved, so Claire observes, probes and, with the help of one of her tourists, uncovers a terrorist plot-and confronts a murderer.
