Ambientato nella Londra dei tempi di guerra, Lemmy ha, come suo solito, un mistero da sbrogliare, che coinvolge due bellissime donne e alcuni tipi loschi. Come sempre, la verità è nascosta dietro una serie di equivoci, ci scappa un certo numero di morti, e Lemmy non si fa mancare abbondanti bevute tra una sparatoria e la successiva. Ma il tempo passa anche per l’infallibile agente federale, e potrebbe essere arrivata l’ora in cui una delle affascinanti donne che lo circondano, riuscirà ad “accalappiarlo” e sposarlo.Lemmy cerca di sventare il rischio matrimoniale con queste parole:— Sentite, Gayda – le faccio – voi m’avete proprio frainteso! Io non sono il tipo che cerca di sedurre le belle donne. Ho troppo da fare, capite? (Cap. 7)I lettori di questo giallo avranno quindi due misteri di fronte, quello del misterioso Travis, la cui borsa dei documenti dà il via alle avventure poliziesche, e quello relativo alla vita sentimentale dell’agente Caution. Ma sinceramente, c’è qualche lettore che ha dei dubbi su come andrà a finire?

KALEIDOSCOPIC pictures of last night's party presented themselves between myself and the ceiling. One or two faces— one of them was certainly Sammy's face, the other that of an attractive woman— flashed across my memory. I felt a little sick and did not want particularly to think about them. In fact I did not want to think about anything.You wouldn't get any funny ideas about me, would you? You wouldn't come to the conclusion that I was just another of those people who've become bored with the war and try to "sublimate" their annoyance by getting cockeyed all the time? I'm not a bit like that. But— and I think I should point this out now— when one has been in the sort of racket that I've been playing around in for the last few years, it's a very good thing for a man to relax occasionally— if you get me— just to stop himself going entirely nuts.

EFFIE THOMPSON was asleep. She was wearing an eau-de-nil satin nightgown. Her red hair, draped over one shoulder, tied with a ribbon, made an effective contrast.She was dreaming in a rather agitated manner. She dreamed that she was dreaming about Callaghan. When the telephone at her bedside jangled she woke up and spent ten seconds considering if she were awake or asleep. She decided she was awake, took up the telephone, shot a quick glance at the clock on the table. It was two o'clock. The call, she thought, would be from Callaghan.
