TWIST OF THE KNIFE by Victor Canning

TWIST OF THE KNIFE

By

Publisher: Morrow -- Wm. Sloane

For oward Smith, committed to smuggling, plenty of double crosses follow his plane crash in the African desert and make his life in Suabar a chancy thing. He hides the drugs; he signs on with Professor Maraccini and falls in love with his daughter, Reta; they dive for gold bullion; he escapes Maraccini's attempts to kill and jeopardizes his own chances to save eta. The shabbier side of excitement.
