There is strict security in one section of Champion Mills - for the good reason that the Champions are experimenting with a new device which they intend to keep to themselves. Quite unexpectedly, Stephen receives a call from an old friend, Saeed Khan. Now it is quite possible that Saeed Khan is not all he says he is and Joe is by nature suspicious. Stephen is reluctant to distrust his friend while Liz has to form her own opinion; but Saeed Khan has a way with him - especially where women are concerned.

Ostensibly a property development company, Tintoc Ltd. has become in fact a cover for highly organised crime.
But Inspector Frant, a tough, incorruptible C.I.D. man, is determined to break Tintoc...
For twenty-five years Pamela La Fane, crippled with rheumatoid arthritis, has lived in a geriatric hospital. For the 3,000 young chronic sick like her there are few alternatives.
