'... a strangled shout was heard from the dining-room. Florence went into the room and found Edward Winchurch lying on the floor, an overturned glass of port on the table. Florence approached him and he went into a violent convulsion, his hands grasping the chair in apparent agony. He died a few minutes later.'
Charged with her husband's murder, Florence Winchurch is found guilty and hanged. But was she guilty? Many years later, Chief Inspector Wexford examines the evidence.
In the sixth of seven readings related to the preceding Bookshelf programme, Petra Davles reads this short story by the award-winning crime writer.

It would be a travesty to say that Guy suspected Apthorpe of lying. His claims to distinction - porpoise-skin boots, a High Church aunt in Tun-bridge Wells, a friend who was on good terms with a gorilla - were not what an impostor would invent in order to impress. Yet there was about Apthorpe a sort of fundamental implaush bility. with PETER BALDWIN ALAN DUDLEY
