Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Bones in London
Kenyon Line Deferred had stood at and even so poor an organization as Siddons Steam Packets Line had been marketable at 33.
Two bareheaded men came down the busy street, their hands thrust into their trousers pockets, their sleek, well-oiled heads bent in dejection.
No word they spoke, keeping step with the stern precision of soldiers. Together they wheeled through the open doors of the Commercial Trust Building, together they left-turned into the elevator, and simultaneously raised their heads to examine its roof, as though in its panelled ceiling was con cealed some Delphic oracle who would answer the riddle which circumstances had set them.
