Earth's cities and commerce are disrupted by mysterious electrical storms that do appalling damage - and then just cease, as if a huge switch was suddenly turned off.

When a spaceship of the Dodd Spaceline is caught in one of the storms and crashes when it tries to land, a survivor reports having seen a strange and remarkable aurora over the South Pole.

When the Golden Amazon is called in to investigate, she heads straight for the South Pole, and finds herself up against an enemy as scientific and as ruthless as herself - Neo-Nazis plotting revenge and world domination.
