Hardy's sixth nail-biting case
Cliff Hardy is at the party to look after the paintings and throw out the drunks—gently. But there he meets Helen Broadway, who interests him; and Paul Guthrie, who wants Hardy to look for his stepson, Ray. Hardy delves into the sleazy world of Kings Cross backstreets and lowdown pubs, following a twisting path laid by a hitman, a criminal with heavy political protection, and a seedy, alcoholic member of his own profession. There's scarcely enough time for Helen Broadway, interesting though she still is. Hardy pushes on to the final confrontation. It's rough: the guns are out, and the odds are no help.
