“American relatives came to visit ‘the great’ Patrick Dawlish and his wife in their country home.  In the wake of the Americans came other visitors – one with a gun.  Dawlish gave chase, lost the unwanted guests – but he hadn’t seen the end of them.  The Americans had come for help that only Dawlish could give them – help to solve the mystery of a murdered dealer in old and rare books.  The trail had brought them to England; would it end there?”
