Scotland Yard’s Department of Dead Ends thrives on unsolved cases and impossible connections, where flukes and coincidences often unravel crimes that logic cannot. One such case begins with a rubber trumpet, seemingly unrelated to a brutal murder.
George Muncey, an unremarkable man with a troubled past, lives a quiet life until fate—and a toy—conspire against him. A careless crime, a chance encounter, and a string of bizarre events lead investigators to a chilling discovery. As the pieces fall into place, a grotesque irony emerges: the very object that meant nothing to the crime holds the key to solving it.
With a masterful blend of dark humor, irony, and psychological depth, Roy Vickers crafts a tale where justice is served not through cunning deduction, but through sheer chance—a hallmark of the Department of Dead Ends.
