Russell and Holmes have finally returned home to Sussex after their adventures in India (The Game), Japan (Dreaming Spies) and California (Locked Rooms), and Holmes is quickly caught up in trying to explain the death of an entire bee hive while they were gone.

They are soon embroiled in a battle with the head of a religious sect who believes they gain power through human sacrifice.
