Summary: "This sixth case for Carl Houseman, deputy sheriff of rural Nation County, Iowa, blends the nitty-gritty of police work with fish-out-of-water wit and undercurrents of menace and international intrigue. Carl knows he'll make the best of it. His daughter, Jane, has been studying abroad in the UK, and her best friend Emma Schiller has been kidnapped. Desperate to protect his daughter, but more than a little hesitant to work half a world away from his jurisdiction, Carl, reluctantly accepts Scotland Yard's invitation to take him on as a consultant--but he'll have to rely on the Metropolitan Police every step of the way."--Publisher.
