A bookseller turns P. I. in this intriguing five-part BBC radio thriller

Grahame Mayer specialises in selling books, not solving mysteries. So when he's asked to play private investigator and track down a soldier from the Spanish Civil War, he wonders if it's some sort of test - and if so, what will happen if he fails...

Armed with fresh information, he is sent to Glasgow on the trail of Jock Cameron, and a meeting with a former nurse who knew him back in Spain furnishes Grahame with further clues. But despite these new leads, the elusive Jock remains tantalisingly out of reach.

Will a series of postcards, some holy pictures and an encounter with a pop star enable the reluctant sleuth to hunt Cameron down - or will it take a man's death to release Mayer from his quest?

Created by Edward Boyd, who wrote for a number of BBC TV shows including Z-Cars, this enthralling crime drama stars Ray Brooks, with a supporting cast including Garard Green, John Hannah and Alexandra Mathie.
