Montarraz has two lives. In summer it is just another quiet Swiss mountain village. In winter, the playboys, the film stars and the political celebrities swarm onto its ski slopes and cram into its night-clubs in the relentless pursuit of pleasure.
But what happens when the season ends and the wealthy invaders depart? How do the villagers cope with the residue of greed, jealousy and tension which is left?
The answer is a gathering storm of passion which finally erupts in murder. A classic crime passionel. At least, that is how it seems, until Chief Superintendent Henry Tibbett takes a busman's holiday and detects the sour stench of corruption beneath the glittering surface of Montarraz's high season.
