Even some of his friends think Guy Winter has gone rogue. The mystery man has disappeared and the dark forces which have driven him to the very edge of madness are gathering.
The Ripper has eluded him, his political masters have stabbed him in the back. He has almost been cremated in a burning warehouse, shot, witnessed the destruction of Coventry and been thrown into wartime Britain’s most secret prison because he was on the verge of exposing MI5’s greatest mistake.
And all the while the London Blitz continues.
Sometimes a man can only come to terms with the tragedies which plague him by breaking the rules, by stepping outside of the life he has lived and risk everything; life, limb and reputation.
But in the middle of the worst air raid of the war his nemesis awaits him.
