It's one thing to be interested in history—it's another to thing to make it Andrew Tillet is just looking out for a younger classmate when he gets pulled into a heroic scheme—a mission to return an abducted boy to his heartbroken mother. Andrew and his friend Christopher carry out their mission perfectly, but Andrew has curious mixed feelings about several details. The next day, he's still thinking things over when police arrive at school with news that a local child has been kidnapped, and suddenly it's clear there's been a terrible mistake. Andrew, Christopher, Sara, Inspector Peter Wyatt, and even Verna Tillet will put their heads together to follow the trail all the way back to London's highest social circles, to reunite a child with his real mother . . . and maybe save a country or two while they're at it.
