British Intelligence man, Sir Gerald Tarrant, is missing presumed dead in the Gorges du Tarn.

Then Modesty finds an injured man on a ledge opposite the spot where Sir Gerald's car went over the cliff. Was he a witness to what happened? If only he could remember.

Meanwhile, Willie Garvin is puzzled by a case of blackmail that doesn't seem to add up.
