Notes London may be at war, but crime goes on. August 1940. On the streets of London, locals watch with growing concern as German fighter planes plague the city s skyline. But inside the famous Ritz Hotel, the cream of society continues to enjoy all the glamour and comfort that money can buy until an anonymous man is found dead, his throat slashed open. Detective Chief Inspector Coburg, no stranger himself to the haunts of the upper echelons of society, is called in to investigate, ably assisted by his trusty colleague, Sergeant Lampson. Yet the pair soon face a significant obstacle: as the crime was committed in a suite used by an exiled king, there are those who fear the diplomatic repercussions. With mounting pressure from various intelligence agencies, rival political factions and gang warfare brewing either side of the Thames, Coburg and Lampson must untangle a web of deception if they are to solve the case - and survive.
