In the fishing resort of Guaymas in the Gulf of California, ZX-5 is undercover as a charter boat captain while checking out a tip that fifth columnists are at work there. His boat is hired by an American actress, her producer, her co-star, and an former German actor, some of whom are not what they seem.
Note: this is the first time in the series where a mention of Japanese activity is found.
