London in the spring of 1955 and someone’s impregnating glass with vast quantities of prohibited uranium and selling it to the highest bidder. The Secret Services suspect Finnish glass importer Arko Arkonnen, a thug with a file a yard long. Spy (and ex-thief) Tristram Upshott has recruited his niece, Rosa Stone, to be a mole at the offices of Heaviside Import/Exports. 19 years young, a Cambridge drop-out and serial absconder, Rosa’s not an obvious candidate for this line of work. However, Rosa possesses an unusual ability; she’s got a photographic memory. Tristram and Rosa’s quest to solve the mystery of the yellow glass will take them from London coffee bars and jazz clubs to the Kent coast and a gigantic uranium distillery secreted inside one of the white cliffs of Dover. Exciting, funny, outrageous and down to earth, this is a spy story with a difference.
