Mrs Pearson's upset when her husband, Desmond, seems to have disappeared from Prague. The man at the British embassy is unsympathetic, but the ambassador knows Desmond's an M9 agent. Drake's bright in to find out what's happening, by posing as an embassy employee with a weakness for spirits. As Drake digs into the social life of Prague by going to a party being organised by Milos Kaldor, he's drugged and arrested for drunk driving and seriously injuring a pedestrian. It appears Kaldor is in charge of a blackmail ring and has been keeping Desmond as a hostage. Drake has to get him and his family out of Prague before, Desmond's value drops to nil, but there's more to it than it first appears.
