Philippa 'Flip' Balfour is twenty years old and missing. Her father is a wealthy banker and the ears that he's bent have ensured that the police have pulled out all the stops in the search for her. There are two main lines of enquiry. Rebus's protégé, DC Siobhan Clarke, is investigating the mysterious Quizmaster, who has involved the missing student in an internet-based role playing game. It's perhaps no coincidence though that Rebus, something of a dinosaur himself, is determined to investigate the tiny coffins left at scenes of similar crimes over a period of more than twenty years. They're strangely reminiscent of some in the Museum of Scotland which date back to the time of Burke and Hare, the 'body snatchers'.
