Roger McLaren - ex computer salesman, erstwhile impersonator, now a part-time SIS agent, and successful novelist - is en route to visit ex school-pal, Tony Higgins, in Perth, Western Australia; a holiday during which he hopes to recover from the effects of a previous mission during which his girlfriend was killed. Having opted for a recommended Singapore stopover en route, he soon discovers his life is again being manipulated. During his brief sojourn on the island nation, Roger - by result of an apparent mistaken identity - suddenly finds himself to be in possession of a large quantity of heroin, by means of which he is coerced into assisting the Australian Federal Police (Narcotics Branch), in an attempt to close down an International drugs ring. His choices somewhat limited, he naturally opts for the latter as, in Roger's opinion, Let's face it, life can become boring if you allow it to. The British SIS, with whom Roger has tenuous links, are also seen to be involved.Naturally, being Roger McLaren, the inevitable female companion pops up. In this instance, the stunning Miss Judy Kimberley Hamilton, whom he meets by chance on the flight from Singapore to Perth. This turns out to be a rather fortuitous meeting, for Kimberley's father, Robert K Hamilton, chairman of Hamilton Industries Pty, would seem to be implicated in the very things in which Roger has an interest. At least, certain branches of his conglomerate would appear to be deeply involved, especially those linked to the ruthless Klaus Santana, and his Claws, one of which is the seemingly psychopathic, Bruce Jones.Roger delivers the package upon arrival in Perth then, piecing together seemingly unrelated bits of data, an idea begins to form. Throw in the delightfully sexy Kimberley, a smattering of travel, technology, and intrigue, and Roger once more finds himself with his hands rather full.
