The battle over Charles Darwin's revolutionary theory of evolution intensifies as the respected Reverend Parmenter is boldly challenged by his beautiful assistant, Unity Bellwood--a "new woman" whom he finds appalling. When Unity, three months pregnant, tumbles down the staircase to her death, Superintendent Thomas Pitt is as certain as he can be that one of three deeply devout men in the house committed murder. Pitt and his clever wife, Charlotte, refuse to settle for less than the truth--or less than justice.
