Set in the summer of 1927, this is the story of T Drummond MacIntyre III, otherwise known as Trey, an American boy from Chicago; he’s on a European trip with his father, but this Grand Tour is turning into nothing more than a succession of museum trips, which is definitely not what he had in mind. Then, whilst in London, everything changes and they’re on their way to Constantinople on the Orient Express and, if Trey is any judge, they are being followed – by a mysterious stranger with a pencil mustache! But his father had heard it all before – in his opinion Trey is a boy obsessed with detective stories, who sees plots and schemes at every turn, and is often something of a liability. Except that this time there really is a plot and Trey ends up playing a central role in a very real adventure in a world where nothing is what it seems and you can’t trust anybody…
