...or are blown up!
Introduced in London as the "first novel to com- bine shopping and terrorism," this is the story of what happens day and night in Haden Brothers, a vast West End department store designed as a replica of the Tower of Babel. It caters to all known human wants, as well as several more mysterious needs.
Into this shopper's Eden comes young Vita Carlisle, captivated by Haden's wares since her youth. Her childhood dream is realized when she is hired to work in the legendary emporium.
Then one evening Miss Carlisle shows up in the mysterious store-top chambers of Arnold Haden, the reclusive scion of the founders.
Three pieces of dynamite are taped to her perfect waist.
She's angry.
She's about to explode.
