Plot introduction
Malcolm Jaggard calls himself an economist, but is really working for British Intelligence. He is engaged to Penelope Ashton and was spending a weekend at her parents’ home when her sister was viciously attacked by a stranger who threw acid on her face. Malcolm uses his position to investigate the Ashtons and finds to his surprise that the identity of her father, George Ashton, is classified to the highest levels. He is also surprised when his superiors order him to guard the Ashtons against further attacks at all costs.
