The Night of Morningstar
Peter O'Donnell
There have been few other female action heroines like Modesty
Blaise—a tough orphan who became the leader of the Network, a crime
syndicate specializing in art theft and industrial espionage. This 10th
book of her adventures begins with a flashback to the last days of the
Network, when Modesty was about to retire, and describes the
organization’s final, astonishing operation before it disbanded. This
operation is echoed several years later when Modesty, with her peerless
lieutenant Willie Garvin, finds herself drawn into conflict with the
mysterious group known as the Watchmen, who have plans to kill Modesty
in London and then destroy San Francisco’s Golden Gate bridge. Modesty
and Willie find themselves prisoners on a drillship off the Ilhas
Desertas and must use their resourcefulness to escape.
