Stretched
across
the
road
was
the
body
of
a
policeman.On
the
way
home
one
evening
in
the
Romney
Marsh,
Bookseller
Theodore
Terhune
and
friend
Julia
are
caught
in
heavy
coastal
fog.
A
passing
lorry
provides
some
guidance
on
the
narrow
country
roads,
but
the
night
ends
with
intentional
mishap
and
a
dead
body.
It
becomes
clear
that
the
constable's
death
was
not
accidental,
but
what
possessed
Tom
Kitchen
to
try
to
stop
a
lorry
singlehandedly
at
1am?
His
widow
is
frightened;
local
farms
vandalized;
his
home
ransacked.
Suspicion
centres
around
the
Load
of
Hay,
an
ancient
Dickensian
pub
full
of
unsavoury
characters,
and
Terhune
finds
the
clues
may
lay
in
the
history
of
18th
century
smuggling
in
the
Romney
Marsh.BRUCE
