Synopsis
Night-climbing is one of those picturesque Cambridge traditions - one which has killed far too many students over the centuries. And even some climbers who were old enough to know better like John Tallentire, whose promising career as a lecturer in English Literature was cut short on St Agatha's notorious leap, Harding's Folly. How can this possibly be connected to a chaotic amateur production of an obscure version of Hamlet? Or to the disappearance of an unhappy young scholarship student? Imogen Quy needs to find out: after all, her name rhymes with "why". The cleverest college nurse in Cambridge unpicks a tangled tale of long-forgotten tragedy with murderous consequences many years later.
