Memories can baffle and deceive - especially when other people mess with your mind.
Danny McRae is a private investigator. He's no Philip Marlowe - but what else is a demobbed SOE agent to do now the war is over and the world needs to find a new normality? Not that anything will be normal for Danny until he fills the void in his memory which swallowed up an entire mission to France.
But first he has a case to investigate. Elegant, upperclass Kate Graveney has made a shocking admission, and Danny needs to get her off the hook. It's a struggle. The head injury which gouged his memory also gives him blackouts: hours, sometimes days, are a complete blank. News of a brutal killer stalking London's red light district makes him uneasy, and a visit from an old adversary awakens dark misgivings.
At least there's Valerie, the shop girl who believes in him - but even she proves elusive. The odds stack up, and soon Danny's running for his life across bomb-ravaged London. The only escape is through that gap in his memory.
