One of the trilogy of books forming the 'Law & Order' series penned by G. F. Newman, this particular story was first published in 1977 and then reprinted in Sphere paperbacks in 1978.

And detective Inspector Fred Pyall of the Flying Squad was going to pull every stroke, straight or bent, that he knew to make sure this particular blagger was bang to rights...
