Now that Amstel is dead, no one in Joplin, Missouri, a zinc\/lead mining boomtown, knows where the \u003cem\u003eEmpress\u003c\/em\u003e is . . . or if it even exists. Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin also has a stake in finding the airship.

He'll stop at nothing to achieve his vision and Evvy is proving to be a huge impediment.
