Aldrich Kemp and The Rose of Pamir - Chapter One: Mothers

Mrs Bartholomew has a mission for Clara Page - her investigation needs to be discreet and unofficial and it throws Clara a surprising curve-ball. You can't choose your family.

A break-in at the Linnean Society triggers a race for the mysterious and elusive Rose of Pamir. Clara Page and the Themis Group are on one side, but who is on the other?

Aldrich Kemp and the gang are back with some new faces as the race moves from London to Paris, New York to Amsterdam and the Maldives to Tajikistan.
