Two Geeks Against The Entire Russian KGB Spy Network - One Side Is Slightly Out Numbered!
"The greatest mystery story of the year and a tantalizing spy story. ... Which of the two lovely women is the spy?" Indianapolis News
"An exciting adventure in homicide and an inside picture of a fabulous scientific operation...The rocket-testing grounds of White Sands, New Mexico, are the setting for this Kelland thriller. The author was especially authorized by the Defense Department to explore the closely-guarded confines of White Sands. Thus, with all his accustomed skill and humor, he presents an inside story of fantastic happenings at this vital research center. The result is a fascinating glimpse behind the scenes of scientists and security and espionage. And, last but not least, a rocket-paced and colorful novel in the finest Kelland tradition." Yesterday's Muse
More pixilated dialogue, delightfully eccentric characters, and midcentury zeitgeist in bestselling romantic suspense author Clarence Budington Kelland's enthralling peek into the period's most top-secret program. The goings-on at the U.S. rocket testing grounds at White Sands, New Mexico, and the development of guided missiles, were some the nation's most closely guarded secretssecrets the "Reds" would kill for.
Dr. Thomas Alva Edison Gimpone of Kelland's quintessential geek heroeshad been brought there as a leader in the development of the electronic brains needed to guide these missiles. His problems began on the train out, where he first encountered a very alluring and flirtatious woman, then a much-too-friendly professor of art history, and thenmurder. His trip didn't get any easier when he arrived at White Sands and met Miss Brown, a woman from his own past, whose job seemed to be anything she wanted it to be and her taste in acquaintances was...questionable. And it all seemed to come to a climax when he met William George Thomas, a man of enormous girth and intellect, whose first encounter with Dr. Gimp may not have been as accidental as it seemed."Gives the reader a peep through the barbed wire at White Sands Proving Ground.
The government allowed the author to visit White Sands to pick up background for his book, and he incorporated a good deal of perfectly sound elementary information about missiles in it.
"There are also four murders, romance and plenty of the kind of excitement that would turn a security officer's hair white if it were ever actually to occur." Sayre, PA Evening Times
