Ultimate evil meets the ultimate heroine. It is 1923, and Russia's Black Sea territories are going blind, literally. Its southern neighbor Khazia demands territory, and if Russia balks every resident in a town or village is rendered sightless. Whether via science or black magic, Khazia's extortion scheme is working. Unless Cecilia "Ace" Carroway can stop it. The unconventional genius and her motley associates answer Russia's call for help. In a village of the blind, they risk losing their eyesight as they collect medical evidence. They also uncover the identity of the mastermind behind Khazia's expansion. He is none other than the shadowy Darko Dor, underground war criminal and murderer of Ace's father. The amoral despot now controls Khazia's army and the diabolical secret of mass blindness. Ace can't let him escape again. But to thwart him, Ace and her fellas will have to outwit an entire country. Preposterous - unless you're Ace Carroway. This book contains: A jet-powered dogfight.
