Whitechurch is a detective novel written in the early 20th century.

Templeton's engagement in boating and a mysterious visit across the estuary hint at deeper connections and potential motives. As Templeton's fate takes a grim turn with his murder discovered soon after by his crew member, Jim Webb, the tension escalates. Characters like Mrs. Yates, the landlady of the "Mariner’s Arms," and Mr. Proctor, a local gentleman, become entwined in the unfolding investigation. The narrative expertly sets the stage for a classic whodunit, promising misdirection and evolving clues as Detective-Sergeant Colson works diligently to untangle the mystery surrounding Templeton's death.
