Susan Bell spends her days within the confines of Westminster Abbey, one of many who live in the grounds of the ancient building. Her father, the kindly but foolish Dean of Westminster, is always busy keeping the many canons and vergers in check, when not being romantically pursued by forceful widows. Life at the abbey is uneventful - even after the unwelcome arrival of Lindley, Susan's cousin, and his unusual demonstrations. However, when the Society of Antiquaries come armed with a letter from King George III, stating of how they wish to open the tomb of Edward I, a ghostly figure is seen walking the abbey cloisters. Then, one of the Antiquaries is found murdered, and the corpse of Edward I is stolen. Could one of the Society members be harbouring a murderous secret? Or is one of the Abbey's own a killer?
