Ray Raymond, Jacox, and Vera investigate the murder of James Pavely, a British pilot found dead under suspicious circumstances. The man was found dead in a ditch and though he was said to be nearly broke, he had a large sum of money on him. The investigation takes the trio to a pub called the Goad and Binnacle and a German cell stockpiling ammo and gathering intel on the area for the upcoming invasion.
