Bait and Switch: A Jessica Minton Mystery - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

War-time blackouts and U-boats skulking along the Atlantic seaboard brood over a New York City evening in 1943. Jessica Minton seeks refuge from play rehearsals gone sour at a familiar drug-store diner. It proves anything but. An attractive stranger, with whom she has a humorous then unsettling exchange, abruptly leaves her with a package. When chronic do-gooder Jessica takes charge of that package, she learns the truth of Oscar Wilde's warning: no good deed goes unpunished. She is caught in a whirl of treachery, treason, and murder made even more dangerous by a suspicious boyfriend and her growing feelings for the stranger behind her predicament. Aided by her tart-tongued sister, a wise-alec cat, and her own wit and humor, Jessica tries to stay on top of a slippery espionage gambit that risks not only her life but the Allied cause..
