April Taub is a thirty-something rebel with a cause. Given to over-indulgence in food, drink, sex, cigarettes and anguish, this daughter of Holocaust survivors is an undercover hunter of Nazi war criminals. A moment of indiscretion sees her stumbling onto a nationwide conspiracy with potentially fatal consequences to herself and her organisation.
Armed with a new persona and her mordant wit, April plunges into an escapade that takes her on a sinister odyssey across the continent. When the desert sand finally stops flying, she realises that none of the people she's trusted are exactly what they seem.
A seriously funny, wisecracking young woman, April Taub is a one-of-a-kind hero with flaws and foibles to spare. She makes us laugh wither her, sympathise with her and ultimately wonder how much of ourselves we can see reflected in her.
