| Notes: | Armed Services Edition Paul MacKinnon, who works for OSS right after WWII, is sent to Cuba to get a secret manuscript that will reveal what Frenchmen and what American corporations were in league with the Nazis in Vichy France. The manuscript was written by one of the collaborators, since killed. The collaborator's wife, Norma, happened to have been briefly married to MacKinnon before the war. MacKinnon believes Norma is a traitor and goes to get the manuscript from her. But soon things get complicated, bodies begin turning up, and Norma turns to Paul as the only person she can trust. She, in fact, was not a collaborator. She was trying to get the manuscript out of France to give to the U.S. government so they could prosecute the traitorous American corporations and give the Frence the info they need. Paul chases the manuscript while a wily Cuban policeman chases him. In the end, the policeman and Paul work together, the manuscript gets to the right people, and Paul and Norma get back together. |
