Kembleford massively protests against the impending closure of its railway station, dismissing visiting official Deepak Chatterjee's promise that needs would be served by dodgy Buddy Arnold's private bus company. At the parish fair, specially held at the station, wheelchair-stuck station master Ben Webb's corpse is found in a conspicuously blood-dripping suitcase. Inspector Mallory conveniently arrests outsider Deepak Chatterjee, from India, but asked for help, Browne believes in the Hindu's innocence. He finds Ben, who made a meticulous station miniature, his wife Julia and Pandora Pott have been relevantly up to no good.
