In the dark misty streets of Seattle, there are no vacations from crime. Just one week after young PI Alan Steward tangles with the White Dragon, he finds himself once again paired with the beautiful and dangerous Vera Deward and embroiled in a mystery that's shaking the entire city. This time, a well known and aging heiress has disappeared. Has she simply departed early for a glamorous honeymoon, as her much younger and newly acquired husband insists or has there been foul play? Alan and Vera race against the clock, through the murky Seattle cityscape looking for clues to the heiress?s whereabouts. Clues that lead to shady hotels, underground catacombs in Chinatown, and to heart pounding confrontations on fast moving trains. Can Alan unwind the mystery and recover the heiress or will this mystery elude him?
