Deep Lake, in Wisconsin, is delightful to visit in the summer, but by night it's a whole other story... The murder of Sampson Tracy was bizarre indeed: a nail was driven into his skull, and round his body were spread out flowers, fruit, a feather duster... This mystery story possesses all the hallmarks of the classics of the genre - an apparently unsolvable crime committed in a sealed room, lots of suspects with highly probable motives, chilling suspense and a great atmosphere!
