‘WE’LL NEVER KNOW’

A sexist science correspondent comes across the strangest of female interns at his paper. Researchers working on a secret government project are dying, apparently of natural causes, soon after they are retired. A feminist woman reporter tries to investigate. An American agent disguised as a hippy tries to stop her doing so. And finally, the science correspondent discovers a truth that he thought unthinkable.

         How does this blend of thriller, erotic love story and science fiction quandary end? In the most unexpected way possible.
