Dr. Thorndyke, a renowned medico-legal expert, is drawn into the perplexing case of John Bellingham, an English gentleman and amateur Egyptologist who has vanished under enigmatic circumstances. The unique nature of the case piques Thorndyke's professional interest, particularly as his former student has become close to Bellingham's brother and niece. Using his expertise in forensic science and logical deduction, Thorndyke unravels a series of clues, uncovering a web of secrets, hidden motives, and unexpected twists in the seemingly simple disappearance. With his sharp intellect and methodical approach, he uncovers a chilling truth that reveals the depths of human deception and the lengths people will go to for power and personal gain.
