Alice and Paul continue on their adventure (from the earlier novel Into the Moonlight), picking up a young woman along the way, who Alice befriends, and takes under her wing.
Paul becomes entangled in the darker side of life, thus becoming estranged from Alice and her newfound friend.
This leads to separate adventures and danger, the girls experiencing a romantic yet working trip into Europe, but leading them down their own path of danger, needing the help of her estranged husband.
A familiar face is lurking in the background from Paul's past, and trouble eventually catches up with him.
It all ends with an explosive climax, leaving you gripped and unable to wait until the next instalment.
