Two Scotland Yard detectives investigate the murder of a young woman of mixed race who had been passing for white. As they interview a spate of suspects -- including the girl's white boyfriend and his disapproving parents -- the detectives wade through a stubbornly entrenched sludge of racism and bigotry.

A chilling, rain-slicked fog settles over this stark investigation into the prejudices hidden behind polite British society. The mystery unfolds through a series of unsettling encounters that expose the rot of racial bigotry lurking beneath a veneer of respectability.
