After `Dead Man Falling', this book really makes an interesting read. Since we come to know more about Johnny Fedora, our hero who already has caught our fascination. This story is set in large part in the Sussex. Since this is the first of the series we get a lot of insight into Johnny Fedora's character and his background, which makes it very interesting. It's like discovering the character and coming to know from where exactly a man with such skills came from. In this story he is sent to Sussex by Peter Holliday of the British Ministry of Information i.e. "Secret Ministry". This is after Hitler has been defeated. He is sent to investigate drug smuggling by Nazi agents who want to destabilize Britain in any way they can. At the center of the drug ring is the "Three of Clubs", a gambling place where Johnny meets an intriguing mix of people who could be involved in the Nazi plot. Soon enough Johnny's partner, Murray dies. He's just the first one to die in a series. This book is very fast and events are happening on every next page. This really keeps the reader intrigued.
