    Lionel Buster Crabb became renowned during the Second World War for his amazing feats. After the war he was celebrated for embodying a particular English ideala love for King and Countrythat seemed to be dying out. In 1956, during a visit to Britain by Nikita Khrushchev who had arrived by ship, Commander Crabb disappeared. Some thought he had perished while attempting to inspect the Soviet vessel; others believed that he had been kidnapped and forced to work for the USSR. Out of this mystery, Tim Binding has spun a wondrous piece of fiction. It is the story of a man who has made personal sacrifices for the sake of higher ideals and who must, towards the end of his days, measure their meaning and their worth.
