Human remains are recovered from the bottom of the River Clyde. Tests reveal they’ve been there for eighteen years. Glasgow’s underworld is buzzing with the news that the dredged up bones belong to Gentleman Joe Strachan, the city’s most successful and ruthless armed robber.

Strachan’s daughters, Isa and Violet, want to hire Lennox to find out who has been sending them large sums of cash each year on the anniversary of Strachan’s most successful robbery. Despite his reservations, Lennox needs the money and takes the job.
