The Ghost travels to Old Haven on Martha's Vineyard, where Lang and his wife Ruth are staying at a complex with Lang's personal assistant, Amelia Bly.

As the Ghost works on the book, former British Foreign Secretary Richard Rycart accuses Lang of authorizing the extraordinary rendition of terrorists.

The Ghost probes the death of McAra and investigates the shore where his body was found, where he is told by a resident the tides would not deposit a body on the beach.
