About This Book

A desperate man rescued from a suicide attempt in a London park is nursed back to consciousness by two strangers and, over a meal, explains that he is alone and ruined. Identifying himself as Harry Leyden, he recounts a troubled inheritance tied to Eaglestone castle and outlines the estate's passage and misfortunes that left him dispossessed. The rescuers, Edward Lister and Charly Brand, offer aid, and the revelation sets a mystery of legacy, danger, and tangled past events that drives the ensuing investigation.
