Percy Blake is the adopted son of Dutch painter Frans Hals. He was originally born to an English nobleman who eventually abandoned he and his mother. Set in seventeenth-century Holland, Blake works on the streets under the alias, Diogenes. He’s a mercenary who’s hired to kidnap a young woman who discovers her brother is a part of plot to kill the Prince of Orange. To prevent her from spoiling their plans, Blake apprehends his target but slowly has a change of heart.
