A bomb rips through present-day London, tragically ending the
crime-fighting partnership of Arthur Bryant and John May begun more
than a half-century ago during another infamous bombing: the Blitz
of World War II. Desperately searching for clues to the saboteur's
identity, May finds the notes his old friend kept of their very
first case and a past that may have returned...with murderous
vengeance. It was an investigation that began with the grisly
murder of a pretty young dancer. In a city shaken by war, a
faceless killer stalked London's theater row, creating his own
sinister drama. And it would take Bryant's unorthodox techniques
and May's dogged police work to catch a fiend whose ability to
escape detection seemed almost supernatural--a murderer who decades
later may have returned to kill one of them...and won't stop until
he kills the other.
