Summer 1951. A young boy fishes something sinister out of a river. A ship enters Liverpool carrying a stoker who is n ot who he claims to be. In the fairground, an odd character looking like a down-at-heel Marlene Deitrich, cranks a barrel organ and sings 'Mack the Knife' in a cracked voice and sheds a tear fro her long-dead brother. DI Charles Vignoles and wife Anna are holidaying in the seaside resort of New Brighton, but all is not well in their boarding house. A fellow guest is missing - and soon they are drawn into a deepening mystery. What does the missing man know about a violent robbery at Bodston station that left a man dead? Did he know too much? Charles and Anna's quest to discover the truth takes them onto Liverpool's Overhead Railway and acorss the electrified railway lines of Wirral. But as the sun beats down on sea and sand, there are sinister and violent men moving through the holiday crowds...
