He decides to play her game, but when she disappears, her father is kidnapped, and a murdered servant is left in their wake, Dawlish soon realizes he’s being drawn into a case with the highest of stakes. One of the doctor’s patients holds national security secrets in his shattered mind—and Dawlish finds himself in a deadly race against England’s enemies to find him . . .
