The Toff is usually above politics. He’s an independent and dislikes party regimentation. But when a favorite MP is murdered immediately before the elections, friends urge him to run for Parliament. An old girl friend is particularly persistent She’s just arrived from America and her surefire journalistic instinct tells her that feature articles on the famed Toff’s launch into politics would sell well back home. Those who have known him, those who have shared his lifetime devotion to justice, those who have risked death at his side, know that Rollison is not joking. But there are others who think that his desire to contest a parliamentary election is just a playboy’s whim, a passing fancy, while others react with vicious threats and brutal murder because they believe his politicking is just an excuse to find the late MP’s murderers and expose a ring of dangerous drug peddlers.
