The Renaissance of Dr Kaisonn

When life has deceived you, what can you believe? In the rich province of Eastingwold, an ancient aristocratic feud has come to a head, like a good boil, and threatens to overthrow the ruling Grand Duke and condemn his people to a life of unbearable suffering and violent retribution. Arts Professor Kai Kaisonn is unwittingly drawn into the terrifying struggle when he is asked to authenticate a work of art. When his only child Annie is kidnapped because of it, he falls comprehensively and rather inconveniently to pieces. Can he emerge from the dark pit of his breakdown with the strength to find her and bring those responsible to justice before they destroy everything he holds dear? Set on Torquasia, a planet not quite parallel to our own which bears more than a passing likeness to a doughnut, this is a heart warming story of deception, courage and ultimately, the power of a father's love...sprinkled with some funny bits.
