THE LIQUIDATOR

by John Cardner ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 12, 1964

Brian IAN (whose sobriquet is Boysie) Cakes is recruited as Liquidator for Special Security after a World War II feat of superb inperviousness, confirmed by his ice-blue eyes. Actually he's a geiger counter of nerves and he subcontracts all his jobs as a paid assassin. Brian is much more accomplished in living well than killing dangerously, and he goes off for the weekend to the Cote d'Azur with Security secretary Iris. There he is first taken by a member of the opposition, then taken in... A spanking spoof of cold spies but one in particular is warmed up with just the right flemingo red to shocking pink flesh touches. All of it is just as extra-vagant as the original.
