If there's one thing Beatrice Stubbs hates more than weddings, it's wedding planning. So when a missing persons' case in Finland offers a chance of escape, she grabs assistant Theo and runs to the Land of the Midnight Sun.

Two environmental protestors have disappeared after an anti-nuclear demonstration in Helsinki turned violent. Suspicions revolve around the energy companies and their controversial modular reactor. But the woman in charge is the same person who hired Beatrice to find the teenagers. Is this a serious job or a PR exercise?

Using natural charm and acquired skills, Theo infiltrates the Gaia Warriors to discover passion, ideology and deep fissures in their foundations. Meanwhile, Beatrice tackles the energy giants, allies herself with the police and reports to her boss. Confidential information finds its way into the press. Her ship has sprung a leak.

Family demands grow unbearable and she's run out of time. When a storm hits the Finnish coast, finding the young people becomes an emergency. On an insider tip, Theo rushes to the rescue.

Beatrice is trapped. The police won't listen and a Nordic giant is on her tail. She has to place her faith in a new acquaintance and risk everything on a gut feeling. Or lose more than one life.

Can Beatrice trust her right-hand man?
