Three classic adventures for the Saint in which he tackles a criminal who kills people before they can reveal his identity, tracks down a man who died a year ago, and goes to a sleepy seaside pub... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Three more engaging stories from the days when the Saint was still firmly based in England, and Holm was where the heart was. "The High Fence" is a fast-paced thriller. In "The Elusive Ellshaw" (which is more of a mystery story), Mrs Ellshaw reminds once again of the author's ability to draw characters at once familiar and hilarious, also providing one of Charteris's few likeable aristocrats. And "The Case of the Frightened Innkeeper" brings dear old Hoppy Uniatz to the fore again. Other old friends include Sam Outrell and (of course) Claud Eustace. P.S. For a list of -- and discussion of -- all Charteris's Saint books, see my So You'd Like To... Guide.
