This is a story about a detective as opposed to a detective story.
Mathew Brown aka Augustus Cervantes discovers early in life that he has some very special skills. Skills that manifest in what many consider very odd personality traits. Most notably, he claims he can find anything with a little help from a nebulous place in his mind that he calls the canvas.
Having built a lucrative career finding treasured missing objects for wealthy patrons, he's contacted by a woman desperate to recover a meaningful family heirloom. This seemingly impossible task is just the kind of challenge for Cervantes' special skills. He accepts the case, referring to it as The Mystery of the Lost Pocket Watch. Little does he know, he's also attracted the attention of a local crime syndicate with their own agenda associated with the missing time piece.
As chaos ensues, intrigue multiplies when Cervantes discovers a clue to the whereabouts of the long-lost watch. The nature of the case and the others who are hot on his trail lead to a chase across Europe filled with murder and mayhem, and an outcome that, for the first time ever, he can't predict.
