Lonesome Cove is one of the least frequented stretches on the New England seaboard. From the land side, the sheer hundred-foot drop of Hawkill Cliffs shuts it off. Access by water is denied; denied with a show of menacing teeth, when the sea curls its lips back, amid a swirl of angry currents, from its rocks and reefs, warning boats away. There is no settlement near the cove. The somber repute suggested by its name has served to keep cottagers from building on the wildly beautiful uplands that overbrood the beach. Sheep browse between the thickets of ash and wild cherry extending almost to the brink of the height, and the straggling pathways along the edge, worn by the feet of their herders, afford the only suggestion of human traffic within half a mile of the spot. A sharp-cut ravine leads down to the sea by a rather treacherous descent.

The body of an unidentified woman is found washed up on the shores of Lonesome Cove, lashed to a bit of wooden grating, with an old iron manacle on one wrist. Professor Chester Kent notices that the woman does not appear to have met her death by drowning, the town officials attempt to cover up details, and the sheriff seems to be hiding something. Meanwhile, an affluent nearby family was acting strangely after the death of the eccentric son. Kent and his friend Sedgwick try to solve the case and keep a step ahead of the authorities.
