When journalist and would-be novelist Mike Stanhope learns he's inherited a house in northern England from someone he's never heard of, he willingly accepts an assignment that will take him to the area and allow him to investigate. Who was the mysterious benefactor, and how did she know him? On the alert for clues, he thinks he's found one in the chance sighting of a young woman in an ancient film.
However, Mike soon has more urgent concerns. The finances of the company he's been sent to visit don't stack up, and the owner's daughter is a little too friendly. People at the company are wary of him, and he can't decide who to trust. An ill-judged article puts his work on the line, and a misunderstanding throws his relationship with his girlfriend into doubt. Suddenly his world is crumbling around him.
Mike is convinced he can get his life back on track by finding out the truth about the troubled company, but it's a road fraught with danger. As the mystery deepens and the pace gathers, he finds himself embroiled in a kidnapping and at odds with the police, and he's being pursued by people who will apparently stop at nothing to prevent him from interfering.
