In an adventure spanning the United States and Mexico as well as the Pacific war front, Helen Meeker and her team are on the trail of the Nazi’s top spy, under attack by the forces of Imperial Japan, and asked to solve the attempted murder of one of the world’s biggest movie stars. From Hollywood sound stages to a deserted island to a Colorado ghost town to a mental hospital, the action intensifies with each turn of the page. As Meeker, Bryant, and Lancelot each work different angles, their cases converge in the climatic fashion of a motion picture blockbuster. In a novel where everyone seems to be on the wrong side of the law, it is all but impossible to determine who is the target and who is the killer. Laced with a myriad of plot twists and dramatic surprises, combined with chase scenes, gun battles, inside jokes, and trips to some of World War II’s most legendary venues, Set For Danger launches Helen Meeker into 1943 with an adventure that doesn’t answer whodunit or who will survive until the final nerve-racking page.
