The story of the decline of the British Empire through the eyes of a Piano. Centred on a young man named Dick who is studying philosophy and gynaecology at Oxford; his two cousins - Emma, an emotionally repressed English girl, and her kleptomaniac sister Helena; and their dipsomaniac Aunt Maggie, who all live together in Kensington in a large, "rambling, Edwardian novel". When the Reverend Whoopsie discovers the Piano on a beach, a plot is set afoot that can be solved only by Dick, and the incomprehensible Scottish sleuth Inspector McGuffin, who with the aid of Sergeant Ken Russell finally reveals the identity of the Houndsditch Mutilator.
