At a bank in Bar Harbor, Maine, Lieutenant Alan Drummond of H.M.S. Consternation steps aside for a lady who ignores him entirely. That chance encounter sweeps him from American summer society to the opera, the mountains and then to Russia, where the police are watching and a prison on a rock in the Baltic awaits.
