After 17 years in prison for his role in a murder, Philip Davidson returns to his former haunt on the Kent side of the River Thames. He takes up residence in a derelict barge and plans his revenge against those who saw him sent to jail for a crime he did not commit. His progress is kept under observation by Bob Lowther, a police officer who married Davidson's girlfriend after he was convicted. Lowther has risen in the force since then, but has long had nagging doubts that his wife may have committed perjury. Davidson's bitterness against those who have wronged him is offset by his meeting of a young refugee woman who is equally an outsider in society. Later made into a movie. Good+/No Jacket.
