The story starts off with an assault on a young busker (street musician), who is innocently playing her violin when someone hits her on the back of the head and then flees. The scene then shifts to a woman trying to shoo a dog, which promptly drops a human finger at her feet. The connection between the two crimes is not immediately apparent.
Richard Jury is called out to investigate with his friend (and ex-peer) Melrose Plant. It eventually becomes apparent that everything is tied to the theft of priceless emeralds from Lord Kennington a year earlier. The suspected thief was his secretary, who was killed in an accident. Apparently, he hid the emeralds, which have never been found. It is believed that he had an accomplice, but the person was never identified. Jury and Plant’s investigation lead to a “Wizards and Warriors” group (somewhat similar to D & D) that the secretary belonged to. Does the game have anything to do with the hiding place of the emeralds?
