Miss Violet Mousqueterr was the heir of Jean Mousqueterr, a businessman who made a fortune in Australia. Violet was born in England and attended the best schools there. She was orphaned as a young woman, and inherited a multi-million dollar fortune. As a wealthy and attractive young woman, a variety of princes and noblemen had asked for her hand in marriage, but she refused them all. She cared little for money, and she wanted a man with a unique spirit who could communicate his love for her with a simple look. She grew tired of men’s attention and came to regard her existence as monotonous. She craved excitement. While vacationing in Nice, France, she met a young Parisian man named Max Soleil, who pointed out an article in the local newspaper about a strange case of international intrigue. She sprang at the chance to help Max investigate it, hoping to have some excitement and do a good deed. The case involved a powerful pan-Asiatic secret society, the Amber Masks, and their plot to sabotage their Western colonizers. The adventure took Violet and her friends to India and Tibet. They ultimately defeated the cult using technology based on colored light, which could mesmerize a person, as well as emit a laser and a disintegrating force field. Miss Mosqueterr was described as a very pretty woman with blonde, almost tawny hair, pink lips, long pink nails, and blue eyes. Violet’s friends included Sir John Lobster, a fat, short-legged Englishman. He was a representative in the House of Commons and one of the wealthiest land owners in the country. He wanted to marry Miss Mousqueterr and was willing to use his money and power to prove his worth. Max Soleil was a French fiction writer who created the heroine Martha Lussan. He is 27 or 28 years old, of average size and looks, with short hair and green eyes. He is apparently a very happy man who frequently sings, hums, and laughs. He is very smart, sincere and imaginative. At 18, he attended Ecolo Polytechnic, and he could have had his choice of careers. He spent two years doing comedy on the vaudeville stage. He also published comedy and drama novels, but only makes about 20,000 francs a year. Notes: Mousqueterr sounds like the French word for Musketeer. However, she has no relationship to the Three Musketeers.
