The Makeover - Hardcover

"Muriel Axelrod, a secretary for Lovell Munitions in San Francisco, suspects that Lovell is illegally exporting arms to South Africa. Muriel, basically apolitical, is drawn into a net of intrigue that endangers her life. This well-paced, breezy narrative of investigation and suspense soon has the reader in thrall... in a plot that picks up a tangle of apparently unrelated threads and fashions them into as neat a design as anyone could ask for..." -- PW.

Muriel Axelrod, secretary at Lovell Munitions in San Francisco, works undercover for a Washington foundation headed by Jack Anderson. The mission: to find solid evidence about Lovell's illegal arms sales to South Africa and other forbidden customerssales which have been receiving secret support from the US State Department.
