Head of a Traveller

When a headless corpse is found entangled in reeds on the River Thames close to the Oxfordshire home of celebrated poet Robert Seaton, Strangeways becomes involved in the case. Due to his admiration for Seaton he does everything he can to protect the family from the police investigation, but suspects the answer to the killing may lie in the great man's poetry.
