A strange disappearance. A desperate plan. And a fight to bring a small boy home to safety . . .

The clues are scant and the tension is high–every moment that passes could bring the boy closer to danger. When a second, separate ransom demand is made, the case becomes even more convoluted, and the Baker Street team must take quick and cunning action in order to find and stop the real kidnapper.
The stakes escalate when one of the Baker Street team’s own is put in mortal peril, and it becomes clear that whoever took the Rollings child will stop at nothing to keep him from being found. Can Holmes and his team rescue the boy and uncover the truth? Or will the kidnapper’s desperate plot succeed?
