To the uninitiated, Industrial Services (I.S.) is a business advice and advertising company, but secretly it deals in industrial espionage, using deep-cover agents with a license to kill. Rumour has it that I.S. even has ties with M.I.5 and M.I.6...
Gang leader Chuck Chalmers is henchman to a tycoon whose interference is a threat to I.S. An elaborate and tightly synchronised plan to frame him needs the expertise of two of I.S.’s best agents: Roger Castle and Helen Wall. The pair go undercover, masquerading as husband and wife in order to spy on Chuck Chalmers. However, Roger and Helen are instantly attracted to each other and the masquerade soon becomes real. Their emotional involvement tests their ability to remain professional under pressure. A cat and mouse game follows, with assassin chasing assassin, and dangerous errors threatening the agents’ very survival.
Who is the hunter and who the doomed prey...?
In all his years as a hitman and industrial spy, Roger Castle has never been in such close confrontation with an adversary. And never before has he looked into the smiling face of death.
