No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Two boys hug and jump... One man blows his brains out and does his lady a
last favour... Alone in his cell another sets a ball rolling that may
demolish a glittering career... Everyone keeps secrets and sometimes not

Investigating the disappearance of the Provost's daughter leads him from
the Old Town to Silicon Gel, from drug addicts to government ministers.
And plants the seed that grows into a nagging belief that there may be
some criminals beyond the grasp of modern justice.
