At Heydn Hall, the ancestral home of the Earls of Newhaven, five people have disappeared mysteriously, including two former earls, an estate manager, and a visiting countess.

When the Jewish mystic and philosopher, Professor Aaronberg, disappears after writing a book about the disappearances, his friend, sceptical sleuth Sebastian Dorrell, following the dubious advice of a delusional mental patient, begins to investigate.
