A peaceful summer morning in Brighton is shattered when a Zeppelin airship crashes on a school playing field.

The town's residents are fearful this indicates the start of another war with Germany, but Clara Fitzgerald suspects the incident is far more local in its origins. Racing to the crash site, she discovers the only person aboard is dead, shot in mysterious circumstances.

Meanwhile, Gilbert McMillan, sleazy newspaper reporter, is hot on the case as well. He thinks he knows the answer to the mystery already and does not want anyone else getting the story first. He bolts out of town to find the truth, only to end up part of the mystery himself when he too disappears.

Before long the army are involved, a police constable finds himself in danger and Clara is trying to unravel an old war story of high treason.

But just who was the man on the airship and how is his death linked to a corrupt nobleman and wartime betrayal?
