No one sees him come or go, but they all know he's been Doris Hornsby, the bed-bound matriarch of a notorious criminal family, calls in the police after she sees an intruder in her room. DCI Blizzard attends in person, bemused that a woman who has spent her life evading the law, now seeks its protection. Meeting the tough old bird, he senses a genuine fear. But if suspicions that the unwelcome guest was the infamous Latch Man are true, that fear should be allayed. A 'gentleman thief', he has never harmed a soul. But when the woman is later found to have died, DCI John Blizzard senses something is afoot. Dismissing the doctor's summary conclusion of natural causes, he determines to investigate further.
