When she is killed in an mysterious crash at the notorious Devil's Elbow, which turns out to be murder. Prentice at the behest of Lord Stigwell sets out to deliver retribution! What follows is a dance of death up and down the Apennine Peninsular, as disaffected Standish Executive Gerald Furniss, disciplined for an error of judgment in the Rome office, turns rogue.
