Julia Probyn-an old friend of many readers-is sailing off the west
coast of Scotland. On the desolate island of Erinish Beg, she and
her cousin are startled to see a sky-blue pole rise up out of the
ground at their feet. Military Intelligence sends Colonel Jamieson
to investigate this find. The action moves from the Erinishes to a
tweed-shop in Tobermory, an archaeological dig on Lewis, an island
off the County Mayo, and finally to a dramatic end in the Scillies.
The mystery of the sky-blue pole is solved soon enough; but there
is much journeying, heart-searching and danger for Julia before the
whole system of espionage is laid bare. During these events Julia,
more and more attracted to Colonel Jamieson, finds in him the man
she will marry.Miss Bridge's many admirers will warm to this tale
of love and adventure, full of authentic local colour, well
informed about the cold war of science on which its plot is based.
