Nicholas Ochterlonie thinks of himself as the most conventional of Englishmen, content to live on his private income and dabble in art history. And if only his wife had not decided to leave him, he might have remained just that.
But she did, and he finds himself on his own in London the night he rescues Julian Bennet from a mugger. Beautiful, mysterious and threatened by dangers Nicholas cannot even begin to understand, Julian draws him into her terrifying world where hot money and the Russian Mafia mix in a murderous cocktail. Then Julian's world and his meet when his speculations about whether a famous painting is a forgery make him a bitter enemy. The result is murder.
