The last deadly bullet . . .
Former special agent Cleo North thinks she has sworn off bureaucracy forever - turns out the Air Force Office of Special Investigation has other ideas. They need her expertise, and are willing to pay her extravagant fee. The case? An off-duty US fighter pilot recently took a bullet under suspicious circumstances and wound up dead.
It doesn't take long before Cleo and Major Jack Donovan from the OSI - with some help from British Intelligence - discover the pilot was involved in some questionable activities. But why was he so interested in a US Army Corps C-47 that went down in the English Channel in 1943?
When another murder links a far-fetched story of wartime international intrigue to millions of dollars in gold, only one question remains: who is behind the ultimate cover-up? And could Cleo be the next bullet's victim?
