Seeking help from Henry Bellringer, a relation of a school friend, he instead finds himself in a nest of thieves. Reading his mother's journal, with tantalising details of his parentage, his grandfather's murder and his deadly legacy, John finally discovers a terrible truth that could mean his death.
