A dead man is found floating in the Thames after having a few drinks.

Pretty clear case of accidental drowning, or suicide…right?

Except this man was an agent for MI5.

The dead man’s notes lead to a beautiful Russian secret agent.

Inspector William Holmes is on the case, who discovers someone is weaponizing a recreational drug.

Just a few ounces of LSD can spike an entire reservoir, sending millions of people into hysteria.

But who is behind it?

And why?

What secrets will he find in The Shepard Files?
