Why would an expert thief steal the British Museum’s least valuable artefact?
London, 1936. The museum heist has the nation puzzled, but only until a new story takes centre stage: Nazi aviatrix Hanna Weisswesp is in town, ostensibly to demonstrate Germany’s new Focke-Wulf helicopter.
Freddie Markham, a daring but socially awkward secret agent, is shadowing Hanna, a ‘person of interest’ to British Intelligence. And he’s about to join the dots between Hanna’s activities and the museum theft.
Meanwhile, twenty-year-old Ida Fellowes, a downtrodden shop girl with big dreams and a bigger mouth, fantasises about flying planes and meeting film stars. But when she unwittingly finds herself in possession of Hanna Weisswesp’s flying goggles, she is suddenly neck-deep in trouble.
Turns out people will kill for those goggles, because the strange power they bestow on their wearer might just be enough to decide the outcome of the looming world war… before it has even begun.
Fans of Indiana Jones, Lara Croft, James Rollins and Clive Cussler will love ‘The Jaguar & The Wasp’, a thrilling, outlandish and emotionally engaging action adventure. Suitable for younger and older adults alike!
