520    "The year is 1924. The cobblestoned streets of St. James 
       ring with jazz as Britain races forward into an age of 
       peace and prosperity. London's back alleys, however, are 
       filled with broken soldiers and still enshadowed by the 
       lingering horrors of the Great War.    Only a few years 
       removed from the trenches of Flanders himself, Lieutenant 
       Eric Peterkin has just been granted membership in the most
       prestigious soldiers-only club in London: The Britannia. 
       But when a gentleman's wager ends with a member stabbed to
       death, the victim's last words echo in the Lieutenant's 
       head: that he would "soon right a great wrong from the 
       past."    Eric is certain that one of his fellow members 
       is the murderer: but who? Captain Mortimer Wolfe, the 
       soldier's soldier thrice escaped from German custody? 
       Second Lieutenant Oliver Saxon, the brilliant codebreaker?
       Or Captain Edward Aldershott, the steely club president 
       whose Savile Row suits hide a frightening collision of 
       mustard gas scars?    Eric's investigation will draw him 
       far from the marbled halls of the Britannia, to the 
       shadowy remains of a dilapidated war hospital and the 
       heroin dens of Limehouse. And as the facade of 
       gentlemenhood cracks, Eric faces a Matryoshka doll of 
       murder, vice, and secrets pointing not only to the 
       officers of his own club but the very investigator 
       assigned by Scotland Yard."|cProvided by publisher.
