Sowerbutt's Fist

One-Line's palm connected with the teacher‘s face with a loud smack. His huge fist could kill a man at close range, but Sowerbutt had told his friend to be gentle.

Sowerbutt's Enemy

“You won’t get away with this, Sorbay, you bastard,” the hawk-faced man with a shock of black hair said. His right eye was already starting to close.

Sowerbutt's Race

Shapiro watched goggle-eyed as Tipper lit a twist of cloth and tossed it towards a pool of paraffin not far from the sacks of fertiliser. He later told Sowerbutt he was not sure who made the yard door first, he had never expected the fat little man to move so fast.

Sowerbutt's Robbery

Inside the warehouse office, Tipper spotted the small bald man with a waxed moustache, known locally as Hercule Poirot, sweeping bundles of banknotes from an open safe into a Gladstone bag.

Sowerbutt's Fire

The fire that Tipper lit under the gas pipe in the empty building had done the trick. A column of blue and yellow flames shot into the air.

Sowerbutt's Eyes

Nero stretched back against the warehouse wall in Millwall, his eyes constantly flickering up and down the alleyway.

Sowerbutt's Pubs

“Impressed on all my friends, old boy, that Luton has the best pubs. Rustic charm, good whiskey and friendly natives,” the military man smiled. “What do they say, John? Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit,” Sowerbutt replied.

Sowerbutt's Letters

Sowerbutt buried himself in the Mirror, reading several letters calling for reprisal air raids against Berlin. “Teach the Jerries a lesson they won’t forget,” said one. “I want 100 dead Jerries to make up for my darling Peter,” said another.

Sowerbutt's Water

The pink whale sank below the waves again. Seconds ticked by, then Churchill erupted again from the soapy water, spluttering and sending water splashing over the sides of the tub onto the thick towels.

Sowerbutt's Secrets

“The history of the British people must uplifting and glorious,” Churchill said. “All these murky messages, these dark secrets must be buried forever. Entomb them in your file, Brendan, and pray that they remain untouched by any future hand.”

Sowerbutt's Toys

In the midst of the steaming bathwater, a bright pink whale was happily splashing around; a couple of wooden boats that Churchill had treasured since his childhood floating between the mountains of soapsuds.

Sowerbutt's Bath

Brendan Bracken perched uncomfortably on the toilet in the cramped first-floor bathroom at No 10. To his right, the cast-iron bath-tub, which had seen many famous occupants, was almost full to the brim.

Sowerbutt's Offer

Churchill said: "Franco is a tough negotiator. We offered to pay him hard currency for a couple of his Republican prisoners, experts in murder and mayhem. He had them hung instead, just to spite us.”

Sowerbutt's Message

Brendan Bracken said: “The messenger also brought a message from El Caudillo that he is prepared to fly to London to mediate an end to the war.”

Sowerbutt's Envoy

Churchill growled: "Reply to the letter as you see fit and we await the arrival of the Jerry envoy. Pray tell me it will halt the terrible bombing.”

Sowerbutt's Letter

Brendan Bracken knew better than to argue with the Prime Minister. “Sir, the terrible bombing of London. Our contacts with the other side have borne fruit at last, we have a letter brought across by the Spanish businessman Gonzales.”

Sowerbutt's Date

Churchill growled: "Archie Wavell was given a direct order to attack the Eyeties at Sidi Barrani. Sitting targets and hopeless troops, deserting by the lorry-load. How does he reply? He’s busy training his army and building up his equipment. December is his earliest date for an offensive."

Sowerbutt's Rank

Churchill sat at the large table, strewn with maps. “Do they think they outrank me? The generals believe they are a law unto themselves and not subject to the will of His Majesty’s duly-elected Government."

Sowerbutt's Briefing

The Brigadier said: "We've had a radio message from the embassy that our Senor Gonzales is a passenger on tonight’s BOAC service from Lisbon. We would like you to keep an eye on him from the moment he steps off the launch at Poole to when he signs in at the Savoy."

Sowerbutt's Holiday

The slight military man smiled. “A quick whiskey before you catch your train. You'll make the 8 o’clock Weymouth express. I've checked it is running. A car is outside and another driver is collecting your colleagues.” “Kind of you to invite us down to the seaside, John. We all need a holiday,” Sowerbutt said.

Sowerbutt's Cash

Madame Komarovski had been visited by another Russian, claiming to be a senior Embassy official. He had offered £50 for anything she heard about a deal with the Germans. He thought that important people were clients at the brothel.

Sowerbutt's File

The burial form, a typed foolscap sheet with the printed heading of Poplar Coroner’s Court giving details of the inquest and a cutting from the London Evening Standard reporting a fatal road accident on the East India Dock Road, together with a number of loose foolscap sheets and other material, were contained in a water-stained beige HMSO-issue file.

Sowerbutt's Friend

To one side of the grave stood a fit-looking man in his forties, a couple of flecks of grey adding distinction to his black hair.

Sowerbutt's Coffin

A curious assortment of eyes watched the coffin being lowered into the grave at the cemetery, a stone’s throw from Mile End Road in London’s East End, still flattened after the recent war.
