In Steward Sinclair, Part II, Sinclair takes on more cases and becomes more and more blunt and outspoken about the dysfunctional society in which he lives to the dismay of his inexperienced assistant who is meek and mild, an archaeological student in a gap year who earns pocket money on the side being a drag artist in a seedy Sailors' Club in London Docklands. One of the cases Sinclair takes on verges on the Gothic horror story, hopefully acting as a brain teaser.
