He may not always be on the right side of the law, but with his charm and Robin Hood morality, he is clearly on the side of angels: he is the Saint.

Whether battling an adrenaline junkie who says he can cheat death, starting a revolution, or putting a drug and human trafficker out of business, the Saint always seems to have fun.

"The bestselling Saint novel which sees Simon hired to clean up the criminals from Prohibition-era New York, only to discover that the Big Fellow is pulling the strings"--Unedited summary from the book.

Templar seeks to avenge the death of his dearest friend.

Three adventures where the Saint battles death threats, gunfire, and kidnapping while hunting a criminal who kills people before they can reveal his identity and discovers a man who is already dead.

Simon Templar is the Saint--daring, dazzling, and just a little disreputable. On the side of the law, but standing outside it, he dispenses his own brand of justice one criminal at a time. In this collection of short stories, the Saint intervenes to teach a motley bag of criminals the error of their ways. Crooked financiers, bookies, fake inventors, dodgy bankers, dealers in pornography, unethical businessmen, murderers, thieves, and liars--all will come to regret the day their actions caught the Saint's attention. Leslie Charteris was born in Singapore and moved to England in 1919. He left Cambridge University early when his first novel was accepted for publication. He wrote novels about the Saint throughout his life, becoming one of the 20th century's most prolific and popular authors.
