Volg Sergeant Cluff, een standvastige politieagent in het rustige Yorkshire stadje Gunnarshaw. Deze serie biedt klassieke detectiveverhalen met een focus op karakterpsychologie en de sfeer van het Engelse platteland. Elke zaak zal zijn scherpe intellect en vastberadenheid testen om de waarheid te ontdekken die verborgen ligt onder het oppervlak van ogenschijnlijk vredige levens.
Amy Snowden, in middle age, has long since settled into a lonely life in the Yorkshire town of Gunnarshaw, until - to her neighbours' surprise - she suddenly marries a much younger man. Months later, Amy is found dead - apparently by her own hand - and her husband, Wright, has disappeared.
An attractive young woman is found dead with a handbag of more money than she would've earned in wages. Sergeant Cluff is bought in to gradually find out the truth about the murder.
