Description

When the British Admiralty asks British Intelligence for help in nailing down saboteurs, it's Tommy Hambledon, that old hand at espionage, who is sent to the Portsmouth naval base. Hambledon is to meet a dockyard workman "with a story to tell." The workman arrives at the rendezvous all right, only to be shot dead before he can open his mouth. Hambledon, hampered by a romantically inclined colleague, and practically cluesless, must now proceed to put a name and a face to a cold-blooded adversary...fast!
