Antoine,a wedding photographer,goes missing during the photo-session at the Greyhavens Winter Garden of a wedding at which Superintendent Alan Mason and his wife happen to be guests.Later that night his premises are firebombed and someone spending the night there is asphyxiated.The portfolio of Antoine's photography proves to be of subjects more varied than weddings,and photography is not the extent of his business affairs.But who is Antoine? Who might bear a grudge?
Sorting out the tangle is the responsibility of Superintendent Mason. Does the onlooker see more of the game,and does the camera never lie?
