Few tears fall when rich, spiteful old Mathilda Gillespie s bloody corpse is found her bathtub, her wrists slit and the ancient scold s bridle clamped on her head. It seems Mathilda s favorite heirloom was also an instrument of torture form the Middle Ages, an iron cage used to gag yapping women. Among the Dorset villagers, only Sarah Blakeney, Mathilda s doctor for her final year, seems even mildly disturbed that the miserable nag has been muzzled forever.But suicide starts to look like homicide, and Sarah s sorrow seems a bit contrived when the bombshell drops that Mathilda has disinherited her daughter and granddaughter, leaving her entire fortune to Sarah. Now the object of vicious gossip and the police s prime suspect in a brutal murder, Sarah must prove her innocence by delving into Mathilda s past to unmask the real killer.
