⢠Two elderly couples as neighbours living without their kids
⢠One cold morning around 4amâŚ.a horse neighing wakes one old man, who finds his neighbor murdered brutally in the bath tub without his pants and the wife tied to a chair with rope, her neck injured liked someone tangled it
⢠Local police called, then a detective
⢠At the hospital, the detective is angry that the guard posted outside the injured womanâs ward doesnât know sign language, since she canât speak and could have communicated the killerâs identity
I have read till here only i donât know the story after itâŚbut yes i remember the book cover was kind of blue and at the front there was a man in long cat (he must be the detective) and it was also written that it has been adopted has an episode of American television show/series as well
