The story revolves around Jacob Herapath, a wealthy and particular Member of Parliament who has mysteriously disappeared, which sparks a police investigation filled with intrigue and suspicion.

The opening of the novel establishes a tense mystery as Selwood is abruptly called to Herapath’s home early in the morning to learn of his employer's unexpected absence. The narrative unfolds through his interactions with the household staff, leading to the discovery that Herapath was last seen returning home after a night at the House of Commons, yet he is unaccounted for, and his room shows suspicious signs.
