THE ASTRID FACTOR

By

Pub Date: Sept. 11th, 1968
Publisher: Walker

Little Charley Flowers, petty hustler, blackmailer, is almost drowned by a potential victim. But a lifeguard turns up in the buoyant body of one Astrid Lundquist, a sturdy Svenska flicka who pronounces ""Jarlie"" her lifetime soulmate. Astrid also has a very criminal bent and soon has ""Jarlie"" again trying to get the goods on Greek industrialist Constantine Vastos. Only the unexpected factor is that Vastos has more to hide than backyard frolics with a highclass whore. Not var so gude. Silly.
