Gunshots pierce the balmy summer night in Buenos Aires, and American orchestra conductor Evan Quinn falls to the pavement in Plaza Houssay.

Clever and resourceful ten-year-old Pierre lives on the streets of Vienna, scrabbling for food and a warm place to sleep. A creepy man with golden hair and ice-blue eyes snatches him off the street with the aid of a syringe stuck into Pierre's neck.Evan, recovering back in Vienna, walks one day to Türkenschanz Park, where a ten-year-old boy named Pierre asks Evan for help. Pierre reminds Evan of himself at ten, and he agrees to help Pierre. It would never occur to Evan that a ten-year-old boy would hold the key to the mystery of who is trying to kill him.
