A great cataclysm shakes the world, and much of Great Britain sinks beneath the ocean during a terrifying windstorm that has already flattened most of mankind's dwellings. Martin Webster and his wife, Helen, manage to survive that first horrible night, but become separated as waves of salt water come surging into the English countryside. Webster, believing his wife drowned, moves into an old railway tunnel, which provides some shelter from the elements, and manages to scavenge some of the remnants of civilization. While down by the shores of the new sea, he sees a woman stagger out of the waves after swimming miles from some outlying island. Claire moves in with Martin, but is kidnapped by a band of twenty renegades who mean to use her as a common mistress for the group. Webster manages to rescue her, but the pair are besieged in their tunnel until a second group, headed by Tom Aldworth, attacks the outlaws, and saves them for an uncertain future...

Francis Hammerton is arrested and convicted of involvement with a gang of confidence men—a charge of which he is entirely innocent—but escapes police custody when a cell door is left unlocked. He finds refuge at a nearby boarding house, but is arrested again when he discovers (and reports) the murdered body of an upstairs tenant—and then is unjustly accused of murder. The dead man had been suspected of a major bank fraud, and was being investigated by a private detective firm. Francis secures the services of Mr. Jellipot, whom his father had known, and although Jellipot isn't a criminal attorney, he agrees to handle the case. And then, piece by patient piece, the little solicitor begins fitting together the shadowy pieces of this complex series of crimes. But can he find the true culprit in time, and also get Francis exonerated of the offense for which he's already been convicted? An absolutely gripping crime novel from the 1930s!
