Send for the Saint John Telfer

Two more adventures based on episodes from The Saint starring Roger Moore: In 'The Midas Double' the Saint is kidnapped in the Athens airport and taken to the offices of Diogenes Patroclos - a Greek shipping magnate haunted by a bizarre doppelgänger. Reluctantly, Simon accepts the job of locating the double, only to track down the imposter in London and find that his quarry has exactly the same story.

In 'The Pawn Gambit' the Saint impersonates a band of killers known as 'The Squad' and completes his mission with his own special brand of justice....

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.
