May 1941 – Money is missing from the coffers of St Margaret College.
Bartholomew Kingston is on the cusp of figuring out who is siphoning funds from St Margaret College when his friend Clark reminds him of their evening plans. He sets his work aside and travels to London for a night out on the town.
When he returns to work he makes a startling discovery: he’s dead. Even worse, Bartie is horrified to learn he is being blamed for the theft.
As Oxford’s newest Eternal, Bartie has some new tricks up his sleeve. With the help of the other Eternals, can Bartie find the real culprit? Or will his name be tarnished forever?
