At the critical moment of the exchange, however, a shot rings out and Toby finds himself with a corpse on his hands, a lump on his head, grass in his mouth, and a dying man's words, the name George Hall, on his mind."--Jacket."

Grant hired the Hollywood detective as a bagman in a blackmailing hand-off. He gives Toby a satchel full of cash, to be exchanged for an envelope of the leading man?s secrets?not sexual or financial, but details of his work for the British crown.
