Before he created "The Saint", British author Leslie Charteris penned this thriller in which a fearless adventurer must save England from destruction. Someone is killing off high-ranking English officials, drawing gentleman adventurer Christopher "Storm" Arden into the fray. A soldier of fortune, Storm is used to delivering justice on his own terms. Along with the help of the unflappable Inspector Teal, Storm finds himself fighting a criminal mastermind who's trying to take down London-and all of England for that matter-in a plot that takes all of Storm's unshakeable nerve and razor-sharp wit to untangle. Storm is a charming rogue willing to risk anything to track down his man, and just dashing enough to win his woman, too. This is a classic thriller for all lovers of vintage adventure novels.
