A Peculiar Combination

Electra McDonnell and her family earn their living outside the law. So when Uncle Mick receives a tip about a safe full of jewels in an empty house, he and Ellie can’t resist. All is going as planned - until the pair is caught red-handed. But instead of arresting them, government official Major Ramsey has an offer: either Ellie agrees to help him break into a safe and retrieve blueprints crucial to the British war effort, or he turns her over to the police.

Ellie doesn’t care for the major’s imperious manner, but she has no choice. However, when they break into the house, they find the safe empty, and a German spy dead on the floor. Soon, Ellie and Major Ramsey are forced to put aside their differences to unmask the double agent and stop Allied plans from falling into enemy hands.
