A ported finds the dead body of Edward Hunt on the last tube train of the evening.
It looks like Hunt committed suicide. Until his wife mentions that he was left handed, the gun was placed in his right hand.
Superintendent Duggan investigates. Hunt worked for a newspaper, hardly talked to his workmates and had no other interests apart from roses. They were shocked that he got married to a much younger Belgian woman.
Hunt met his wife in a club where Hunt was learning French. Hunt's mother who moved into a home thinks that his wife twisted him around her fingers. She would regularly go to Belgium to see her family. Hunt had to pack his mother off to an old people home when he married.
It does not take much to work out that the club where Hunt met his wife arouses interest. Also Hunt's wife might have something to hide.
A Swiss watch and some money Hunt had withdrawn from his bank account are the main leads for Duggan.
A brisk efficient thriller. It's very much a meats and potato story that holds few surprises.
