description:  Bobby Owen stood for a time in silence looking down thoughtfully at the dead mans face. A small insignificant face lacking even that touch of repose and dignity which death even violent death so often gives and one that Bobby had never seen before. Of that at least he was sure.Yet this same man was found dead with a detailed and accurate plan of Bobby Owens new London flat. Why? The plot soon thickens when a man with a grievance against Bobby turns up to identify the dead man  But Bobby will need many more beads on the thread before he understands the murderous connection to an old Army Officer and what necessitated the death of a burglar.This edition features a new introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.
