Prominent Cabinet minister Lord Amersham has been shot dead outside his Regents Park home, two bullets to the chest and one to the forehead. The killing bears the hallmarks of a professional hit.
Tackling one of the most high-profile cases Scotland Yard has ever faced, DCI Paul Stark is under pressure to produce a quick result. Amersham s colleague, Secretary of State for the Colonies Winston Churchill, is convinced the Bolsheviks are responsible. Stark s colleagues at Special Branch believe there s a connection to the Government talks taking place over Irish Home Rule.
