While on tour in East Germany
after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Leslie Frost discovers a clandestine
group in possession of a hidden, ultra-sophisticated computer and
working on a new system of smart bombs. For the sake of stability, she
is ordered to bring the group down.
Most concert violinists wouldn't pack explosives in the case along with
their Stradivarius, but Leslie Frost is no ordinary musician. When
she's not performing the Kreutzer sonata, she's spying on neo-fascists
and ex-communists in the emerging new East Germany. Frost, aka Smith
(code names for the all-female band of American super-spies come from
the Ivy League's Seven Sisters schools) witnesses a murder outside an
East German church and is drawn into a mission that centers on a
powerful computer and a ring of communist spies.
With an array of high-tech gadgets in her purse, and a Harley motorcycle
in her garage, She is as savvy and cool as James Bond at his best.
Between concerts and recording sessions, her time is filled with
midnight meetings of both the romantic and the dangerous varieties, with
high-speed chases and nick-of-time escapes.
