Prentis, the narrator of this nightmarish novel, catalogs "dead
crimes" for a branch of the London Police Department and suspects
that he is going crazy. His files keep vanishing. His boss subjects
him to cryptic taunts. His family despises him. And as Prentis
desperately tries to hold on to the scraps of his sanity, he
uncovers a conspiracy of blackmail and betrayal that extends from
his department and into the buried past of his father, a war hero
code-named "Shuttlecock"--and, lately, a resident of a hospital for
the insane.
