Description
British sleuth Patrick Dawlish is about to discover that during World War II, there's as much intrigue on the home front as on the front lines. The big, broken-nosed Patrick Dawlish has a history of matching wits against those who have outwitted the police. It's practically become his chosen vocation when he's not serving in Her Majesty's armed forces. Dawlish's requests to serve overseas have been rejected since he's far too valuable in England. This is how he finds himself on a train to London with friends Ted Beresford and Timothy Jeremy--three junior officers with the same mysterious orders to meet in the same mysterious room. Someone is attempting to sabotage negotiations between Ireland and England--and delaying much-needed wartime supplies. Within a day of reaching London, Dawlish and his men are faced with fires, explosions, and a shocking political assassination. And now, at least two countries will learn that it's never smart to have Dawlish in the mix when he begins to take matters personally . . .
