The Bent Bonanza

Overview

Because of a computer mistake, it appears that a Mogul subsidiary has found vast nickel deposits in Australia's Gibson Desert, and the shares react. Willy Izard flies out to protect Mogul's financial reputation, with Peter Thornton checking the geology in case the nickel is real and ambitious new recruit Paddy Hedgewood sent along simply to keep her at a distance. In the desert they meet an old miner who claims the land is his.
