Saint THE SAINT CLOSES THE CASE - A Positronic Book, Book 2, (Paperback)

<p><strong>Simon Templar, the Saint, returns in an early, high-stakes adventure of crime, danger, and audacious heroics.</strong> First published as <strong><em>The Last Hero</em></strong> and later reissued as <strong><em>The Saint Closes the Case</em></strong>, this fast-moving Leslie Charteris novel helped establish the tone that made the Saint one of the great figures of twentieth-century popular crime fiction: elegant, reckless, witty, and perpetually at war with villainy. The novel first appeared in British magazine form in 1929 before book publication in 1930, and the later Saint title became the better-known reprint form. </p><p>Here Simon Templar is drawn into a sinister plot involving secret weapons, ruthless ambition, and enemies whose schemes threaten far more than ordinary criminal profit. Charteris blends mystery, thriller, scientific menace, and the sharp-edged glamour of interwar adventure fiction, giving the Saint a case that tests both his nerve and his code. For readers of vintage mystery, classic British thrillers, pulp adventure, gentleman rogues, and early espionage-tinged crime fiction, <strong><em>The Saint Closes the Case</em></strong> remains a brisk and stylish entry in the long-running Saint series.
