What do you do when you visit a friend on holidays and they're not there? When they have no family and their employer doesn't seem to care and you spoke to them yesterday and yet... they've disappeared?
Our intrepid heroes Holmes and Watson are faced with just this situation when they arrive to visit Roland Burgos in New York - who's on the verge of a massive breakthrough with computer-aided translation software. Even as Watson worries they are getting involved in something that doesn't concern them, it's Holmes' inate sense of right - and his secret love of getting involved where he shouldn’t be - that sets them on the trail. And it's a trail that takes them back through Roland's past loves and leads them to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sydney, Paris, Rome and Amsterdam... as they uncover the true worth of Roland's invention and the willingness of the people he's screwed over in the past to take their revenge. Of course there's big New York muscle cops, celebrity business gurus with kinky habits, athletic Dutch lesbians and an army of Holmes' A-Gay friends to help them solve the case. But will they ever save Roland from his past - or himself? And will they ever make it to Cape Town for their holiday?
