Description
This novel followed Close Quarters, and once again features Inspector Hazlerigg. It is a gangster suspense thriller about the postwar black market. There is robbery, murder, and smuggling in a volume that contains all of the ingredients of a first-class tale, with Gilbert’s particular trademarks of dry humor and wit, and an obvious knowledge of the subject written about with fascinating and revealing detail and description.
