A blind US Army captain visits an old friend, but stumbles across a dead body and his killers. After being knocked unconscious, he undergoes an operation to restore his sight and begins investigating the murder.

After leaving Department S, the hedonistic, womanizing dandy Jason King settled down to a full-time career of writing (trashy) Mark Caine novels. He philandered his way around the world, doing research for his stories and tripping over a variety of odd--often verging on surreal--cases, usually involving beautiful women. He was occasionally blackmailed into working for British Intelligence under the threat of being arrested for unpaid back taxes.
