Can Montgomery convince his friends to return to America with him in hopes of finding the missing piece to the puzzle that will help him close the case? Serena has her doubts. Her concern for her friend, Sir Hilary, is overlaid by her fear that Randolph may once again find his life in danger from an old adversary who once left him for dead.

Time is running out as events escalate revealing more secrets than ever suspected.
