La hija de un poderoso banquero ha desaparecido. Solo hay dos pistas: el hallazgo de una muñeca en un minúsculo ataúd, cerca de la residencia familiar, y la participación de la joven en un juego de rol en Internet dirigido por un oscuro gurú.

El inspector Rebus se pondrá a hurgar en la primera pista, mientras la agente Siobhan Clarke seguirá a un misterioso "Programador" en una investigación contrarreloj.
