Description:

**Framed for a grisly murder, one man must descend into London’s criminal underground to uncover the truth behind a deadly conspiracy** The classic Jack Higgins thriller When a young woman approaches Matt Brady from the shadows of the London night and invites him to accompany her back to her London apartment, it seems like a dream. But the next morning he awakes to a nightmare: the woman’s body lies dead on the floor, and the police are hauling him off to prison for a murder he did not commit. Brady’s insatiable quest for the truth drives him to break out of prison and infiltrate London’s sordid criminal underworld, where he must confront the man who framed him in a deadly final showdown. The girl claimed she was being followed, and he fell asleep drunk after escorting her home. But when American Matt Brady awakes, the place is crawling with London police, and the girl is dead. He is sent to prison for murder, but Matt knows he has to find the truth--if only to save his sanity. Previously published by Fawcett.
