THE CAUTIOUS ASSASSIN

William Mallet, a British newspaperman, went to the Caribbean country to find a colleague who had disappeared. Mallet discovered that the personal dictatorship of one Diaz operated with vicious efficiency. Soon clapped into a fortress prison, he makes a spectacular escape, joins some rebel forces, eventually reaches he U.S. and unmasks dictator Diaz in an incredible denouement. Neither characters, escape chase or intrigue is up to the level Orgill maintained in last year's Journey Into Violence.
