*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
October 1940. The Blitz bombing raids continue mercilessly, but when the body of a kitchen porter from Claridge’s hotel is found, it is clear that he has not been the victim of a blast: he was strangled.
