Tamall beag i ndiaidh meán oíche ar an 1 Feabhra 1943, déantar ionsaí fíochmhar, barbartha ar iompróir míleata agus é ar a bhealach go saotharlann rúnda i ndeisceart Bhaile Átha Cliath. Maraítear na saighdiúirí uile atá á thionlacan agus goidtear an lastas ríluachmhar atá istigh ann, an tEitleán Dofheicthe. Déanann na Gardaí mionscrúdú ar láthair an áir, ach níl ach fear amháin a bheidh in ann an cás casta seo a réiteach agus pleananna na gcoirpeach a chur de dhroim seoil: Réics Carló, lorgaire príobháideach.

Tá Réics, Brian agus a gcairde ar ais sa scéal eachtrúil seo ó pheann Chathail Uí Shándair, an dara húrscéal ina shraith faoin lorgaire clúiteach as Baile Átha Cliath. Tá an t-eagrán nua seo curtha in oiriúint do léitheoirí óga an lae inniu.
