The plot very quickly sets up a peculiar but engrossing mystery: why is Arthur Rowe given information by the fortune teller at a wartime London fete that enables him to win a prize cake; and why does a strange deformed visitor come to his lodgings, apparently intent upon poisoning him and to retrieve the cake - before a German bomb puts paid to that? Arthur Rowe wants to know why, and so do I!

Wow - I was just getting bored with this - a very slow central passage of about 40pp - but I soldiered through and now the story has exploded into life - what a great bit of writing (I say with hindsight!).
