Reporter Kitty Gray discovers half of a broken coin with a cryptic inscription in a curio shop. At her editor's order she travels to Gretzhoffen to unravel the clue. She is followed and embarks on adventures as she pieces together the secret of the mutilated inscription.
Kitty pursues the missing coin in Count Frederick's palace as Roleau defends her. Intruders force a chaotic mêlée. Frederick and Bartel clash over the coin and a trembling captive Kitty. A hidden plan unfolds as the king and Frederick maneuver to recover the coin and control the fate of all involved.
Kitty plans another escape from Gretzhoffen aided by a hairpin lock trick. She confronts Count Sachie in a hall, denounces deception, and schemes to flee back to America while weighing the pull of home and work. The chapter ends with Sachie reappearing as she attempts to slip away.
A fragmentary note outlines Chapter XXVII with a peculiar title about a counterfeit occurrence and Frederick described as an elf, hinting at inaction or stalled progress in the narrative. The garbled OCR hints at a fiction piece detailing character roles and a curious plot point without clear events.
A tense exchange reveals Count Broderick feigning loyalty to a monarch while a clever speaker hides deeper schemes. The king, eager to regain a lost ally, rewards swift obedience, unknowingly playing into a higher strategic plan manipulating events behind the throne.
