Description
Something wicked is going on at the Carcroft Works of General Aircraft Limited, located on the lonely Yorkshire moors. Foul play and deadly espionage, by the looks of it.
Under what is dubbed the Full Moon Project, research is being conducted into a new anti-missile missile. One of the project researchers is killed in a hit-and-run “accident” in the factory parking lot on a foggy November night and papers related to the missile design are compromised. On account of his activities with the Secret Intelligence Service in The Third Encounter, Antony Maitland is pressed by representatives from the company to investigate on the scene, in the guise of a new employee. His wife Jenny comes along to provide cover, but the case is no honeymoon for the couple. To the contrary, it proves to be positive murder.
This gripping courtroom drama from 1963 features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.
