Summary
Wellington. June 1942.
Ed Teach, head of Blackbeard Investigations, is ready to retire when he gets one last job offer: a fat cheque for the simple job of finding industrialist Bartholomew Bonnet's missing son, Stede. The problem isn't finding Stede—that's easy enough for the best skiptracer in the country—it's that the more Ed learns about Stede and his family, the more it becomes clear why Stede ran away in the first place. But Stede has something valuable of his father's, and Bonnet and his dangerous, well-connected allies will stop at nothing to get it back. The thing is, though...Ed's found something of value, too: Stede.
And Ed's not giving him up without a fight.

Summary
Cashier by day, bottle service by night. Ed's in desperate need of a break from struggling in the city's gutter, especially now that he has dirty money to owe and not much more than his body to sell.
It’s the final year of Stede’s PhD. Instead of studying poetry, he spends most of his academic term fighting and failing to piece the enigma of Ed together.

Summary
Ed knows hypnosis isn’t real. So when Stede mentions that he knows how to hypnotize people, Ed does the only reasonable thing and dares his co-captain to hypnotize him.
This might, in retrospect, have been a tactical error.
