"Two gruesome murders occur at midnight in the Manchester rain. All the suspects have their motives, of lust and love, greed and revenge: but it proves hard for a famous detective to decide between a shady M.P., gangsters and prostitutes, between a celebrated philosopher and his wife. Somebody is lying. But who?"—Publisher's description
