It is the eve of the Great War, and Jim Stringer, railway detective, is uneasy about his next assignment. It's not so much the prospect of Scarborough in the off-season that bothers him, or even the fact that the last railway man to stay in the house has disappeared. It's more that his boss seems to be holding back details of the case.
