Mat and Douglas's time as Nikolai's wards is finally drawing to a close. Though torn apart by Nikolai's machinations, their fates are still inextricably entwined: they've been sold to the same cruel master, and are united in their desire to go home. But "home" means two different things to the brothers: for Mat, their little bungalow in Nevada, and for Douglas, a swift return to Nikolai and Roger, the only people he believes still love him.
But first they must survive their new master. Smythe Hall is a twisted island paradise where Americans affect British accents and slaveboys dress up as slave girls, all at the whims of the rich and megalomaniacal Allen Smythe-Kennedy.
Meanwhile, FBI Special Agent Nate Johnson can't let the case of the missing brothers lie. He knows it's a waste of resources to chase ghosts down a cold trail, but after admiring Mathias "Stonewall" Carmichael ringside and at countless after-parties where he was too shy to say hello, he's determined to solve the mystery and bring Mat and his little brother home.
