Wimsey and Bunter try to save the Duke of Denver (Lord Peter's elder brother) from the hangman's silk noose when he is accused of murdering Dennis Cathcart, who was engaged to his sister, Lady Mary. Cathcart was shot in the Duke's garden during the night, and the only suspect was found standing by the body - but he declines to discuss the matter.
