Book description
'Simon had about him that indefinable atmosphere of romance and
adventurousness which is given to some favoured men in every age, and it
attracted adventure as inevitably as a magnet attracts iron filings'
Leslie Charteris Exciting, debonair and ever so slightly disreputable,
the Saint is ready to mete out justice in a way that only he can. These
adventures take him all over the world, where, with that ever present
twinkle in his eye, he flushes out swindlers, murderers and jewel
thieves. He helps to solve an unusual murder in Paris, confounds a
cunning crook in Bermuda and in Rome he is grabbed by the long arm of
the Mafia at their peril! Sir Roger Moore, star of the Sixties TV
series, introduces this collection of post-war stories, which include
The Patient Playboy
and The Sporting Chance
.
