description: Lucy Durmast, arraigned on a charge of murder, remained obstinately silent. This didn't help those investigating the mysterious death of young Kenneth Carline, an employee in her father's civil engineering firm, soon after the disrupted opening ceremony of a new tunnel under the River Calle. The involvement of Lucy's absent father in the politics of the African kingdom of Dlasa and the sudden disappearance from the University of Calleshire of the King Of Dlasa's son complicated matters further.
