Eccentric John Dobie and his rather more practical girlfriend Kate Coyle are braving an Atlantic gale to visit a patient in a clinic when they find a young girl lying in a coma by the road-side. Despite their best efforts, seventeen-year-old Beverley Sutro dies of her injuries that evening.
Is she a victim of a hit-and-run or did someone deliberately plan her death? To the irritation of the police, Dobie - in his own inimitable way - begins to investigate. With Dobie assisting the police with their enquiries anything can happen. And it does.
