About
The story of Jake Webster, an American expatriate in Vienna who was the operator of Jake's Bar & Grill, an American-style establishment near the scenic heart of the city. In fact, the business was a cover for Jake's actual reason for being in Vienna. He was involved in tracking down various spies and international criminals at the behest of U.S. intelligence, which apparently held something against him which, if disclosed, would have resulted in his being deported from Austria and apparently then incarcerated in the United States. Jake's liaison with U.S. intelligence was a Major Caldwell.

When Floyd Macklin, an American black marketeer, escapes from a Black Maria, he vows to kill prosecutor Hans Eckert and Major Caldwell, the men responsible for his 20-year sentence.

Queen's Gambit
Jake is hired by Aline Masterson of a New York museum to recover the Royal Crown of Bosnia, stolen from her outside the Hofburg Museum. Through underworld contacts Jake delivers the pay-off money to a hijacker. When Jake is knocked unconscious at the rendezvous site, both he and Aline are suspected of being confederates.
Annalisa

A Deadly Shade of Green
Jake uses a painting to find a royal emerald stolen by a convict, the painter of the portrait, in 1886. The painting leads him to a tunnel under the Hofburg Palace filled with plaster models of monuments. Jake must contend with several other crooks who are also after the emerald.
So Long, Charley
Jake Webster is startled to meet in Vienna Charley Stokes, whom he saw killed on a beach in Albania after the pair had blown up a power installation. Charley explains that, though seriously wounded, he was saved by Elga Compani, number two official in the Albanian Secret Police and is now married to Charley. Jake begins to suspect that Charley and Elga are still loyal communists.
Soldier of Fortune
When professional soldier Frank Cort arrives in Vienna with a beautiful blonde, Jake suspects that he has unfinished business with Vasamubo, deposed premier of Upper Namba and with General Gundarson.
