Description
The third in an evocative series of mysteries set in the grand hotels of war-torn London. Join Detective Chief Inspector Coburg, Sergeant Lampson and fictional cameos from well-known names of the day in an atmospheric, period-tale from acclaimed British author Jim Eldridge (b.1944).
October 1940 sees London enduring the dark nights of the Blitz. Detective Chief Inspector Coburg is challenged when a kitchen porter is found strangled at Claridge’s; the home of several exiled royal families and politicians, and, even, the Duke of Windsor. With assumed names and secrecy at every turn, can Coburg unpick if the porter really was who he said he was and, if not, who would wish him harm? All while avoiding treading on diplomatic toes.
