A dead John Doe is found on the beach and Detective Lieutenant Tony Ricco gets the case to solve. However, there are no clues whatsoever to the dead man's identity and Tony is all out of options to bring the investigation any closer to a finish. An old friend of his from Scotland Yard in London, Geoffrey James, comes to visit him, and Tony asks for some input on the case.
After examining the body and the man's clothes, Geoffrey concludes he wore a Harris Tweed coat and had Sterling pound notes on him, and therefore has to be of English origin. Geoffrey also discovers a fluorescent paint on the coat, which would suggest it is the same paint as the one used to mark floating objects in water to easier spot and rescue them.
Since the dead man had no water in his lungs he hasn't drowned,but maybe got the paint on him picking something up from the water, for example a life jacket.
Geoffrey goes to the site on the beach where the body was found and discovers a life jacket as suggested, in a beachcomber shack...
