LONDON, SEPTEMBER 1915
When Constable Billy Rigsby, along with his mother and aunt, goes to
The London Necropolis Railway Station at Waterloo, to attend the
military funeral of a neighbour’s son, proceedings are interrupted by
the unexpected and brutal murder of a young woman.
In a panic, Billy telephones Mayfair 100, to assemble the team,
and they descend upon the station to find not only a murder to
investigate, but also two empty coffins, plus another coffin
containing a headless and heavily tattooed body - obviously
not the body of the young Captain whose name is on the coffin lid.
The team then follow a trail of police corruption; a robbery that
requires the assistance of the military police, and several violent crimes
borne out of a selfish love affair.
The investigations of the team take them into unusual and
disturbing aspects of wartime life.
Genre: Historical Mystery
