A Date with Death - Collins, Ace

. .

Résumé :
Helen Meeker is back and has less than thirty days to stop the execution of an innocent pastor who has unbelievably confessed to being a Nazi spy. While on a case that has dynamic implications to uncovering an espionage ring operating on American and British soil, Helen defuses a hostage crisis in a bank robbery gone wrong, unearths an explosive coffin, and is introduced to a dead English hero who seems very much alive. The fate of an innocent girl and the world's two most dynamic leaders depend upon Helen's connecting cases before Wilbur Shellmeyer faces a firing squad, and Churchill and Roosevelt meet for a secret conference in upstate New York. Set against the backdrop of the early days of World War II, A Date with Death combines action, adventure, mystery, and romance in a tale that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until they, like Helen Meeker, answer the question, Do I save the leader of the free world or an innocent man scheduled to die to protect someone he loves? Which life is more important? Though the answer to this question will be revealed at the end of A Date with Death, Helen's action and adventure will continue at a break-neck pace throughout the In the President's Service Series, as she takes on new challenges and dangers.
