Summary

When Clarice Devlin's fiancé was killed under the wheels of a London bus, it seemed a very ordinary accident. But Miss Devlin was not altogether satisfied. She hired Glenn Bowman to visit England and ask a few questions. With his highly developed instinct for the phony and the crooked, Bowman soon finds himself on a trail that leads right into trouble - a quarter of a million pounds' worth of trouble.
