Intricate, fascinating and deeply satisfying to the last page --
another classic Robert Goddard mystery.
Actor Toby Flood, formerly of big and small screen but now seldom
seen on either, arrives in Brighton with the other cast members of
the Joe Orton play Lodger in the Throat. They have been on tour
since September, but hopes of a West End transfer have been
abandoned and they are all looking forward to the end of the run
the following Saturday.
Flood is visited that night by his estranged wife, Jenny, now
living with wealthy entrepreneur Roger Colborn. Jenny runs a shop
in the Lanes and is worried about a strange man who is hanging
around outside. Roger has dismissed her concerns but Jenny
persuades Toby, for old times' sake, to do something. The next day
Flood trails the man and confronts him. Derek Oswin is an
unemployed loner who blames Roger Colborn for his father's death
from cancer on account of dangerous practices at the now-closed
plastics factory run by Roger and his late father, Sir Walter
Colborn. However, Oswin is a fan of Flood's and eventually he
agrees to lay off. Then, Colborn gets wind of Flood's contact with
Jenny and tries to buy him off, but Flood sees only a longed-for
opportunity to win Jenny back, and presses for answers to a host of
questions surrounding the death of Sir Walter seven years earlier.
Before he fully understands the risks he is running, Flood finds
himself entangled in the mysterious -- and dangerous --
relationship between the Oswins and the Colborns. The prospects of
him surviving until the close of the play suddenly start to look
far from good.
