Description

A former army officer, still haunted by the wounds of the Great War, is drawn back into intrigue when an old school‑friend delivers a cryptic newspaper notice. The ad seeks a cultured, resourceful young gentleman to accompany a recently returned, wealthy expatriate on a continental tour. Intrigued by the mystery and the promise of a handsome fee, the veteran decides to investigate, seeing the request as an opportunity to apply his wartime instincts to civilian life.

Soon he receives a puzzling invitation to meet a man named Salim Mazaroff at a London hotel. The name, foreign and enigmatic, hints at a tangled past that stretches across continents. As he steps into the bustling streets of post‑war London, the protagonist must untangle clues, confront old comrades, and navigate a world where old loyalties clash with new dangers—all while the shadow of a murder that once spanned three continents looms ever larger.
