When Tarrant of British Intelligence finds himself a prisoner facing weeks of mind-bending interrogation he clings to slim hope - that Modesty Blaise and her formidable henchman, Willie Garvin, will suspect his well-faked death in a road accident and will find him before he breaks. His captors are a bizarre company led by Colonel Jim, a criminal tycoon who aims to do for blackmail what Ford did for motors. There is Angel, the girl with the wire garotte; Mrs, McTurk, the genteel assassin; and the unique Mr. Sexton, who rightly claims to be the greatest combat man in the world....

Peter O’Donnell’s first full-length novel “Modesty Blaise” was an instant, tremendous success. It had an amazing international reception and was translated into over a dozen languages.
