| Plot Summary of Bluegate Fields |
|---|
"Young Arthur Waybourne has been homosexually abused, drowned and thrown in a sewer. His tutor, Maurice Jerome, is accused and convicted of the crime. Inspector Pitt and his wife Charlotte are unconvinced of his guilt, because all avenues of possibility have not been pursued. They suspect that class favoritism has played a role in the investigation of murders and crime in general, and this case in particular. Despite the conviction they pursue the real killer.
"
