His fiancée, Ann, recounts the events leading up to his death to psychiatrist Dr. Tony Page, who is drawn into the case due to their past connection. As Tony delves deeper, he uncovers a complex web of secrets and lies within the gay underworld of 1950s London.

With its detached yet powerful portrayal of love, desire, and loss, this book is a powerful and haunting tale that will leave a lasting impression. Written with great competence, this novel is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the complexities of human relationships and the struggles of those living on the fringes of society.
