Dragon’s Breath

Marian Braithwaite was the keeper of her Father's secrets and is the one person who may know the true extent of Brocklehurst's influence in British politics and finance. Having been confined to a mental institution, she has now gone missing, and time is running out for the Agency as the Russians, who may be agents of Brocklehurst, close in on her. The Agency must find her before the Russians. They are dealt a tragic blow, and their only option is to retreat to Wales to avoid a diplomatic incident and seek their revenge.

However, a once in hundred-year storm converges on them, trapping them and the Russians in Blackburn Manor.

Welsh folklore says such a storm portends the Dragon Sorris' awakening from the caverns beneath the castle, unleashing its deadly breath across the land.
