Interlude (part 1)

Jack Aimes is an American living in 1937 Belgium. He's the captain of the Black Jack, a plane he and his partner, Travis, use for charter service and cargo delivery. When a friend asks Jack to go to an auction to bid on a book called the Prose Edda, he accepts, using the opportunity to take a beautiful woman on a date. After he successfully outbids everyone at the auction things go very wrong.

He and his date, Bluma, a German waitress, are nearly killed protecting the book. Heinrich Albrecht, an importer/exporter of various goods will stop at nothing to get the Prose Edda in his hands.

Jack is determined to find out why the book is so important while trying to stay alive.
