Five jewelled eggs in a golden nest sat in the strong room of Quinn's on Bond Street. Outside, John Mannering - alias the Baron - guarded the treasure for his clients - an ugly old man and his stunningly beautiful niece. While Miranda Smith waited in the showroom, her uncle took a taxi to the bank to procure proof of ownership. But Pendexter Smith has not returned, and Mannering has a problem on his hands - Miranda is deaf, deaf and is a state of severe shock. The events that follow are enough to make even the Baron nervous. Attempted burglary, murder, and threats against his life leave Mannering battling for survival in this thrilling tale.
