A Plum Jam

In A Plum Job, the brilliant and beautiful actress Louise Wellesley, a.k.a. Plum, joins the Secret Intelligence Service and arrives in Paris in the summer of 1939. While baring her breasts on stage at the Folies Bergre, war begins and soon the German army is marching up the Champs-lyses. The French Resistance think she's a collaborator, the police arrest her for murder, and the Gestapo fancy her body. She uncovers a British double-agent, and flees with a price on her head. In A Plum Jam, back in England, she joins ENSA (Every Night Something Awful) to entertain troops. Starring in a panto at Windsor Castle, she's snatched when the IRA kidnaps a royal princess. Still in her Cinderella costume, Plum fights back. Prime Minister Churchill demands she join the Special Operations Executive (SOE). Training is horrendous. Parachuted into southern France, she plays her toughest role from an enclosed Carmelite monastery. Sister Plum? Like Nancy Wake, she encounters randy Frenchmen, vicious Gestapo agents and double-crossing locals. Blowing up trains and killing Nazis is easy. But telling London there's a mole in the SOE HQ is damn tricky. Plum's in a right royal jam.
