Un solitario día de invierno, la policía halla un cadáver en Hampstead Heath. Se trata de una joven y bella muchacha que ha sido apuñalada en el corazón. La única pista es un pañuelo teñido de sangre con la inicial "S". Su vestido, medias de lana y zapatillas planas corresponden al típico atuendo estudiantil. La investigación se pone en manos del superintendente Hazard y del detective inspector Learoyd.
