这是一桩离奇到令人惊呼的案子！人奇：一个大热天穿棉袄、满脸胡子，“专心绣花，就好像是个春心已动的大姑娘，坐在闺房里赶着绣她的嫁衣一样”的犯案人！这是陆小凤系列的第二个的故事。在这个故事中，陆小凤半正式地成为了“神探”的角色，一时受激，说熘了嘴，在众人的笑声中承担了破案的任务，内情复杂的“大案”，古龙拿手的离奇风格，在此不但获得了极度的发挥，而且与读者斗智，考验了读者的智慧。

Set in 17th-century Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony, during the years 1642 to 1649, it tells the story of Hester Prynne, who conceives a daughter through an affair and struggles to create a new life of repentance and dignity. Throughout the book, Hawthorne explores themes of legalism, sin, and guilt.
