About the book .. . What was the strange power of Dr. Khan, combining as he did the mysticism of the east with the science of the west ? Was Cassin, the retired American detective, all that he claimed ? These and other questions faced Chief Inspector Kearns in Scotland Yard's des-parate fight against a Mafia invasion of Britain. This exciting story, starting in gangster-ridden Chicago of the early thirties, moves swiftly to the Britain of today, building up to white-hot interest as it nears its tremendous climax. This is a "clean" book. It has a mild romantic interest, but for its main appeal relies, not on an orgy of sex, but simply on a jolly good story, in the best traditions of Agatha Christie, Edgar Wallace, and others. |

About the author ... Herbert Metcalfe is the founder andManagingDirector of a famous Manchester salesmanship school, and during 35 years' experience has written over 50,000 sales letters ; their interesting nature proved by their success ! The same gripping, easy-to-read style characterises his first thriller, "The Amazing Doctor Khan". The town of Salford, Lanes., which once produced—regularly— champion boxers, now seems to produce good writers instead; Louis Golding, Walter Greenwood, Shelagh Delaney — and now Herbert Metcalfe. |
