Description: In 1935, Nate Heller is hired to escort Amelia Earhart on a speaking tour due to numerous cut-and-paste death threats against her life. Heller suspects the threats are a stunt by Earhart's publicity-hungry husband, and the detective's growing closeness to the bisexual aviatrix leads to a steamy affair. To years later, when Earhart embarks on her flight around the world--and mysteriously disappears over the South Pacific--Uncle Sam enlists Heller in a clandestine search of Japanese waters for the popular Earhart ... and the top-seret plane she was flying."--Page 4 of cover.
