At the Skyline Casino in London, the security team have just made a headline-grabbing arrest: they've spotted and detained a man suspected of murdering a high roller.

The killer is no longer inside the cell. Two detectives . . . David Raker is an expert at solving missing persons puzzles – but these mysteries are unlike anything he's ever seen.
