Meet the most exciting new private investigator in suspense fiction, a female James Bond from California named Alison Gordon, who drives like a Grand Prix veteran, speaks five languages, carries a .357 magnum (and uses it), and charges $400 a day. Based in Beverly Hills, she has never had a case like this - a bizarre undercover mission to Burma in aging Flyer Fortresses, manned by a wealthy retired Air Force general, refugees from a WWII squadron, CIA dropouts and a gold star hero known as "Blue Leader," the best B-17 pilot the Allies ever had - and a man after Alison's heart. A fast, dazzling, authentic adventure of war against the drug trade in Asia, with stops in Paris, the Bahamas, Washington and Rodeo Drive.
