Introduced by Di Fisher with Robin Borwick and Peter West.

A report on the care and cost of keeping donkeys, from Ruffs Orchard Donkey Stud, near Maidenhead.

When a woman is found dead in the early morning by the side of a railway line Hardy is brought in to help the police with their investigations. The woman has been murdered, and as they piece together a picture of the man the police and Hardy realise that they have a dangerous psychopath loose in their area. Dead women, trains, wedding rings, a lipstick, and a glove are all links in this macabre investigation.
