Among the beautiful George Wells's suicide was last wiles gossip. But Campion stubbornly refused to close his personal books on the affair. It came down to professional ethics, a commodity rare in aristocratic circles. He had barely scratched the surface before Campion found himself vest-deep in a deadly game of cat and mouse, chasing through a maze of adultery, blackmail and espionage, that led to a bizarre series of murders. All done in the world of the wealthy with the best of taste, for the worst of reasons: blood money.
A tall thin man with overly large spectacles. he is deceptively unobtrusive when tracking down a killer and uncannily capable of predicting the deadly twists of a criminal's mind. He is unquestionably a gentleman, but even Lugg, his dauntless valet, and his friends at Scotland Yard don't know all the secrets in Campion's past--or the confidential cases he has covertly solved while in His Majesty's Service.
