Wycliffe plot
Charles Wycliffe is Chief Inspector of Police in Cornwall. Assisted by his closest associates Lucy Lane and Doug Kersey, a small police station is established at the crime scene and together they try to find the killer. For Wycliffe it is always quite a journey to find out how the complicated friends and family ties in the villages work. He himself is not always friendly to the villagers, for example he never shakes anyone's hand. But in his own way, withdrawn and thoughtful, he puts together the information he collects. Finally, the puzzle pieces fall into place.
