Imogen Hassall's brief life ultimately paralleled the tumultuous 1960s-the freedoms, the joy of life, the reckless excesses and the searing uncertainty of life itself. This is not a traditional showbiz biography. It is not a celebration of a long and illustrious career, or the brief but brilliant life of some bright and fleeting comet that blazed unforgettably across the Hollywood firmament. It is the human tragedy of a warm and caring, loving individual, who was broken inside and was lost. "She would be delighted to know that we're still talking about her."

Catherine "Cat" Warburton is the black sheep of a rich and powerful family, who live on the West Coast. Blonde and beautiful, Cat's interests are Soul music, guns and fast cars. When she is not hanging out at the beach, Cat goes undercover as a daring crime fighter for a highly secret private agency. The teenage sons and daughters of wealthy parents who live on the good side of the track are running amok, committing mayhem and murder. Meanwhile a horned figure presides over strange midnight ceremonies where occult rites and blood sacrifices are performed. A leading moral crusader proclaims that the Day of Judgment is at hand. The notorious heavy rock band 666 may be able to provide a clue to the goings on. In the guise of a hooker, go-go dancer and bikini wrestler, Cat goes on the road with the band. She embarks on a wild ride of blood, lust and terror that takes her from quiet suburbs, hippie colonies and Indian Reservations to barren wastelands and down the "Devil's Highway" -Route 666. Cat's lurid escapades escalate into a weird way-out Bad Trip, as the world around her goes mad. Aided and abetted by "Soul Sister" Selena and the exotic Aiko, she encounters rednecks, Hell's Angels, trigger-happy cops, medicine men, guerilla fighters, strange cults, monsters, demons, and the legion of the living dead.

Drums of the Lost Gods is a thrilling cliffhanger, set in South America, in the turbulent 1930s. An ill-assorted band of adventurers follows a nameless river into the sacred mountains and steaming jungles of a Lost World, in search of ancient civilizations and vanished cities of gold. An uneasy alliance of mercenaries and hoodlums trades shots with river pirates and ferocious cannibals and then turns on each other, their ambitions perverted by lust and greed. Soldiers-of-fortune spar with Amazon warrior women, while hapless missionaries try to teach the natives how to play cricket. A debutante duels to the death with a gangster's moll. Warriors of antiquity wage war against a robot army from outer space!
