Hollywood Star Turns Spy



 

Henrik Zoltan approaches Hollywood star Amelie Blake in 1943 with the promise of a leading role in his upcoming film, but he has a more significant role in mind. Stockholm has become the 'Casablanca of the North' after Amelie's homeland of Sweden declared neutrality in the war. Allied forces scramble to recover top-secret atomic research files when they go missing in Sweden.


There is a need for someone who is subtle enough to spy on the Swedish elite without triggering suspicion on the part of the United States Office of Strategic Services (OSS). There can be no better starlet than the "all beauty, no brains" Scandinavian starlet? With a brilliant memory and fluency in three languages, Amelie loathes being called witless, but uses the label as a disguise. Despite her best efforts, Finn Ristaffason keeps getting in the way of her search for the crucial files. Is the charming shipping magnate searching for the missing research? Has he other reasons for showing up at every turn of her life?


For Amelie to survive a world of deadly spies and counterspies, she must rely on her smarts as well as her acting skills.



I give The Starlet Spy five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
