The time is 1963. The locations are an English provincial town and London. Lewis Eliot agrees to help his old friend, the lawyer George Passant, with a murder trial. Two lesbians are charged with torturing and killing an eight-year-old boy. As the trial progresses, C.P. Snow brings alive all of the characters caught up in the tragedy.
