Dr. Hobson reveals that she had attended Gresham College the previous evening for an orchestra rehearsal. When a notebook is found near the body, Lewis and Hathaway visit Crompton's wife Isobel who points them in the direction of Gwen Raeburn, senior lecturer in Astrophysics, and wife of the head of Hobson's orchestra - Sir Arnold Raeburn.

It's Halloween and Lewis and Hathaway are called out to the body of Professor Ligiea Willard, found with a stake through her heart. A traumatised Doctor Hobson arrives on the scene and reveals that Ligiea was an old university pal and they'd been due to meet for a drink along with another friend, Dr. Ellen Jacoby, that very evening.
