Spring Offensive

March, 1918. British newspapers carry the dreadful news that the German Spring Offensive has begun, with thousands of British lives lost.

Late one night, a bank is raided by a gang and the villains escape by car with a sizeable haul. Detective Inspector Harvey Marmion is put in charge of the case, but without Keedy at his side he faces an uphill battle to solve this perplexing case.
