Summary

When the driver refused to deliver Shorthouse to the door of the rundown mansion because he was afraid, Shorthouse realised the secret-shrouded contract he was carrying was the centre of a very strange mission. His boss had demanded secrecy and warned him of the danger involved with the visit he was to make. Now he was stuck here, miles from the nearest help with night approaching.
