The news of rising young surgeon Stephen Maxie's sudden engagement comes as a bombshell to his family as they gather at Martingdale, their Elizabethan manor house, for the annual St. Cedd's village fete. Worse, however, is to come. Sally Jupp, unmarried mother and the household's recently recruited parlormaid, will that very evening be strangled in her bed.
