January 1936.
A strange tropical disease is terrorising the streets of London.
Nobody in mainstream medicine knows of a cure for the condition, but one man, through his evil experiments, has learnt a lot about it and knows that a potential disaster has arrived in London.
When Dr. Abraham McIntee is murdered at Arundel House, he is found covered in flowers and New Scotland Yard are quickly sent to investigate.
It's not long before a criminal underworld comes to light - a dangerous one of blackmail, revenge and ancient maladies.
Inspector McGonagle and Sergeant Spring are facing their most challenging case yet.
The chase is on to find the killer before he strikes again, but with an endless list of suspects to be eliminated from the enquiry, will they run out of time?
The cadaverous butler Searle and the maid, Mary Daw, from Arundel House all appear entirely innocent.
But could the obsequious Dr. Fayne be involved?
What of his companion Mervyn Lancaster, the suave Shakespearian actor?
Exotic Nancy Sanders tries to help but it quickly becomes apparent that someone wants to stop her speaking...
Can a lonely Indian Prince help the doctors working on the case before an anonymous criminal claims another victim?
Assistant Commissioner Sir Percival Merridew is under pressure to get results and his Detectives must follow a dangerous trail to discover the identity of the mysterious killer.
Angus MacVicar is a Scottish writer specialising in crime thrillers, young adult and autobiography.
