About the book

When a shipment of iridium is stolen the Saint hatches a scheme to recover the goods – but then one of his prime leads is murdered and he’s framed for the crime.

He escapes to Galveston in Texas in pursuit of a man who has been sabotaging weapons factories, only for him to turn up burnt to a crisp.

The Saint has to contend with the local police, a trio of mysterious men and a beautiful Russian in his attempt to get to the bottom of what is going on.
