Monsieur and Madame Vignemal drowned while attempting to pay a courtesy visit to their neighbors across the river separating their two estates. An ill-considered visit, since the river was raging out of bounds during a sudden early snow storm. Will the husband’s dandy nephew inherit since the Vignemals are childless? He seems to be the first in line to inherit. That will depend, however, on who died first—the husband or the wife. Will officials believe the young “savage,” Roch Ferrar, who said he tried to save them? Or was he just a murderer in league with one or more of the many heirs of the rich wife? Why has another nephew, Roger Pontac, reappeared just at this moment? Is he also innocent or a murderer?
