The Face of Hektor
Kyle Baxter
Freddie and Joel from Morrel & Morcerf and the Spear of Destiny return for another globe-trotting adventure. On their way to the marriage altar, Prince Frederick and his consort Joel detour to Paris to recover a missing painting. While in the City of Light, they learn about a newly discovered treasure looted from Frederick’s homeland and now up for sale.
The couple follows the trail to London, where they come up against another connoisseur of sorts, a notorious local mobster, Tristan Eames. A brutal man with a penchant for Greco-Roman relics and delusions of grandeur, Eames claims to be a Trojan descendant himself. He is after the same treasure.
Freddie and Joel run afoul of the gangster when they rescue one of his victims, a trafficked teenager. But Eames does not take any loss well and chases after the couple and their young charge. He wants his ‘property’ back.
