After an English professor from Amherst - who is an old friend of her mother - is found dead on the floor of a cider house, Elizabeth is interrogated by the police, and then grilled by her daughter. She is indeed keeping a secret - but could Meg's own mother really have committed murder? One thing is clear, someone decided to teach the professor a lesson. And the key to unlocking the mystery may lie with a poet who could not stop for death.
