In early 1933, Rowland Sinclair and his companions are ensconced in the superlative luxury of the Hydro Majestic in Medlow Bath, where trouble seems distant indeed. And then Harry Simpson vanishes. Croquet and pre-dinner cocktails are abandoned for the High Country where Rowland hunts for Simpson with a determination that is as mysterious as the disappearance itself. Stockmen, gangsters and a belligerent writer all gather to the fray, as the investigation becomes embroiled with a much darker conspiracy. Murder. Treason. Trespass. Kidnapping. Betrayal ... Again, Rowland Sinclair finds himself in the middle of it all.
