Rose Mary Bell is missing. She is a top model who works for Hugo Zana, a renowned clothes designer and couturier, and in the opinion of the Honourable Richard Rollison (aka 'The Toff'): 'beautiful'. Other models also appear to be inexplicably leaving, although a mysterious Mr. Smith seems to have something to do with it. The girls are being threatened and Smith will seemingly stop at nothing, including murder, to harm Zana's reputation. It is a complex case worthy of The Toff's very particular investigative talents.
