The Jersey Stratagem

Every year three Jewish multi-millionaires hold the vital annual meeting of their Family Trust in total secrecy flying high above the Atlantic in 'no-man's land' where no tax is due to any government in the world. Secrecy is the only protection for their enormous wealth. Betrayed to money-hungry Communist intelligence agents, they become caught fast in the crossfire of the secret East-West Cold War being fought out behind recurring headlines reporting new financial crises threatening the West. The millionaires' only ally in this unequal struggle of hi-jacking and hostage-taking is a tough, unsympathetic newsman, Jonathan Robson, who develops a hankering for the beautiful, haughty daughter of one of the millionaires. And is Robson just a journalist? Or could he too be a spy? The breathtaking climax to this fast-moving first novel is reached twenty thousand feet above the Atlantic with the unleashing of a new 'secret weapon'.
