Geneva: After being missing for two days, Nemesis agent Paul Brading is found by a police officer and taken to Nemesis headquarters; but once in the building, he seeks out Nemesis official Colonel Cawston and promptly shoots him dead. Subsequent tests on Brading show a powerful drug present in his blood system. Tremayne disappears, but then reappears some time later and inexplicably shoots a Nemesis doctor. Craig, Richard and Sharron investigate events and discover that both Tremayne and Brading had recently had their briefcases stolen; Richard has his wallet taken, and allows himself to be lured to a fake police station. Here he too is given the mind-altering drug, subjected to brain-washing, and given a target to kill: Craig Stirling!
