Now， in &lt;i&gt;The Color of Death&lt;/i&gt;， Sir John and his young assistant， Jeremy， face one of the most sinister crime waves of their time.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Suspicion and fear are running high in London， as a ruthless gang of black criminals terrorizes the town in a spree of robbery and murder. Ladies are held at gunpoint in their homes， innocent men are shot， and a young maid's throat is slahed from ear to ear.
