Little progress had been made by the Thames Valley Police since the discovery of a corpse in a North Oxford flat. The victim had been killed by a single stab wound to the stomach. The police had no weapon, no suspect, no motive, but within days of taking over the investigation, Chief Inspector Morse and Detective Sergeant Lewis uncover startling new information about the life and death of the victim, Dr. Felix McClure, late of Wolsey College, Oxford.

Kult-Ermittler Inspector Morse in gleich drei spannenden Fällen. Der letzte Bus nach Woodstock: Das kleine englische Städtchen Woodstock ist stolz auf seine historischen Gebäude und die edlen Pubs, in denen angeblich schon die frühen Royals zu Gast waren. Kaum einer erliegt nicht dem Charme von altehrwürdigen Mauern und schicken Hotels. Doch die heile Fassade bekommt deutliche Risse, als im dunklen Hinterhof des "Black Prince" die Leiche einer jungen Frau gefunden wird.

Una giovane, attraente donna è morta, uccisa con un colpo di pistola esploso attraverso la finestra del soggiorno di casa sua, una delle poche costruzioni di un breve viale in cui i vicini si conoscono tutti e sanno tutto di tutti. Due indizi instradano inizialmente l'ispettore capo Morse: un criptico messaggio che cela data, ora e luogo di un appuntamento, e una foto con uno sconosciuto dai capelli grigi. Un terzo indizio che si aggiunge in seguito appare più promettente: un possibile errore di percorso dell'assassino.

Il professor Felix McClure, anziano professore universitario in pensione viene assassinato con un'unica violentissima pugnalata. La totale assenza di indizi non è un ostacolo per il bizzarro ispettore Morse che con il suo solito metodo inizia a congetturare astratte ipotesi una dopo l'altra finché, come sempre, non riuscirà a trovare la pista giusta.
