Frankly amorous waxed Das Schwarze Korps, newspaper of Heinrich Himmler's Elite Guard. The paper invited the U. S. to join the "new strong powers," presumably sit by while Germany licks Europe, and afterward easily and gently seize Canada, Bermuda, the Bahamas, other Imperial leftovers.

Laid on a tiny windswept island (composite of Turks & Caicos), the story twists around the romance between the scion of a hardbitten, salt-making family and a disillusioned blonde who arrives from Bermuda to keep books. Hemingwaywardness bristles on the story like barnacles. But it has one claim to originality: Author Hayes's ingenuity in getting Adrian and Carol alone together on the island. Adrian's father drowns; his mother dies of neurosis; his young wife departs to have a baby, decides...
