The story is narrated by the hero, Bupps, who is an amateur de- tective and professional lawyer. His sister Helen is in the throes of a painful and acrimonious divorce with her husband Jim who also happens to be Bupps’ best friend. She is now involved in a torrid a air with a man called Frank Woods who, as Bupps discovers doesn’t enjoy a very clean reputation. Woods is a war-pro teer and his transactions have a seamy side. Things take a menacing turn when Jim is found mysteriously dead in a car accident. Bu- pps’ suspicious are aroused by certain strange circumstances that occurred during the accident. From here on, the plot takes readers on a roller coaster ride through sinister Bolshevik conspiracies, high society country clubs and deadly pursuit through barren landscapes, ending in a most unexpected denouement.
