Description
Set in 1943, Maggie Hope, an American stationed in England who works for MI5, goes to Los Angeles, where Gloria Hutton, the fiancée of RAF pilot John Sterling, has been found dead in a hotel swimming pool. The police are quick to label the deceased a "hophead" and rule her death an accident, but Sterling refuses to believe their assessment and asks Maggie to investigate. Maggie's inquiry, which takes her to film sets, nightclubs, and other Hollywood locales, eventually leads her to a charismatic L.A. cop who heads the local Ku Klux Klan and is plotting to blow up a theater during the premiere of an important war film.
