Epitomizing the glamour and decadence of the era, Amelia Lambe is the quintessential English free spirit, an unlikely widow who knows the value of her sex and is not shy about using it. Combining her sexual magnetism with wily panache, Amelia uncovers the enemy within and annihilates men with an evil mission. Throughout, she is the sexual game player, not some passive love interest. The vengeful Meixmoron and his courting of the Nazis, born of his hatred of the Americans, follows his near-death experience at the end of the Great War at the hands of the most decorated US airman. His targeting of British searchlight stations is an untried Nazi plotline, bearing a twenty-first century resonance that hardly needs explaining. Spanning locations from the Alps to Belfast and Hitlers Eagles Nest to the Himalayas, the plot captures the essence of the times, as the story unfolds across Scotland and Englands university and cathedral cities. Amelias pursuit of the truth of her arms-dealing husbands disappearance on the Cresta Run is matched only by her nemesiss plotting against the Americans and his accomplices misplaced efforts to help the Nazis to victory.
