But even before his ship sails from New York, the atmosphere becomes charged with sinister omens.In the course of the voyage one mysterious event follows another. After his arrival in Europe, a series of baffling encounters and the abrupt disappearance of a friend and colleague combine to intensify his mounting sense of danger.Before long Strang joins the struggle against a monstrous and terrifying conspiracy which may affect all mankind, and long before it reaches its climax, Strang himself and Cecilia Hillard, the lovely American girl with whom he has fallen in love, are in deadly peril.

A nice copy. ; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall; 448 pages; "Just another routine overseas assignment. That's what successful young New York architect Ken Strang thought when a national travel magazine sent him to Europe to sketch Greek ruins. What he did not know, until it was too late, was that from the moment he boarded ship, he had become the pawn in a murderous game of international intrigue. To Strang, danger was no object. He could take care of himself. But he had reckoned without Cecilia, his beautiful photographer. For when he fell in love with her, he unwittingly gave his enemies the one weapon they needed. If Strang was going to be stubborn . . . Well, there was always the girl.". Seller Inventory # 9353
