Stephen Gray, medico, è intento a raccogliere campioni di flora e fauna da uno stagno, quando ai suoi occhi si offre uno spettacolo raccapricciante. Appena sotto la superficie scorge il volto cereo di un uomo, il resto del corpo quasi completamente nascosto dalle piante. Si tratta dello scultore Julius D'Arblay, che la notte precedente non è rientrato a casa. Sembra esclusa l'ipotesi dell'incidente, data la scarsa profondità dello specchio d'acqua, o del malore improvviso, essendo improbabile che la vittima fosse andata a passeggiare al buio in un luogo così isolato; resta da valutare quella del suicidio.

A childhood friend of Harold's wife, young barrister Rupert Mayfield, convinced that there must be another explanation, enlists the help of Dr John Thorndyke to lift the shadow that hangs over his friends.
