Sydney and Dixon’s have received their next mission. They are to recover an FTL genetically secured encoder device. It is a highly sophisticated piece of equipment that deals with cryptology. They are to get it from a contact named Smythe. They will meet him at his photo gallery in London.

Dixon pretends to a rich buyer so that he can distract Smythe. Sydney breaks into Smythe’s office and recovers the device – all while eluding a pesky guard who comes close to catching her.

Marshall discovers that the encoder works by using single-user DNA that is sampled from the skin of a recipient’s fingertip.

SD-6 is going to need the fingertip of Gareth Parkashoff. He is dead and buried. His burial location is unknown…except to his assassin.

Sydney impersonates a patient and infiltrates an asylum in Bucharest. Parkashoff’s killer, Martin Shepard, has recently been committed there. SD-6 Agent Fisher goes along with her, posing as the physician who is committing her. Shepard is a trained assassin; he has been programmed to respond only to a John Donne poem. Sydney is to use this poem to get the location of Parkashoff’s body.

After arriving in Romania, Sydney is committed. She has a run in with Shepard but it doesn’t appear likely that she will get the information from him. He is hostile and won’t respond to the poem. He wants to be left alone. Sydney goes to find Agent Fisher and learns that the asylum is run by Kreshnik…a K-Directorate agent.

Sydney finally finds Agent Fisher…with his throat slashed. Sydney is trapped inside the asylum…
