Green Fuse Summary
| When you're Bertha D. Nation, Ace agent of UPIGS (which has nothing to do with meat inspection, at least not officially), you answer when your country calls. In this case she is sent to Gnatswarm, Oregon to investigate what is being termed an act of 'vegetative terrorism'. What she finds are instant jungles, a plant geneticist on the lam with Native help, sacred redwoods, both Levi Stump Junior and Senior, various thugs, and small-town intrigue with world-shaking implications. A woman who believes in giving the taxpayers the most bang for their buck, Berth launches into her investigation with aplomb, at least one concealed explosive, and her finely honed ability to wring chaos from the most tranquil and bucolic situation. [Author's note: In preparing the online version of this story I was pleased to restore a line toned down for its original publication. You'll find it when Bertha assesses a fellow government agent's abilities. It's a good line, and applies to more than just this one character.] |
