SUCH MEN ARE DANGEROUS IBD

Sinopse

&ldquo,This goes through you like a dose of salts and stings like iodine.&rdquo,So said Virginia Kirkus Reviews of Such Men Are Dangerous when it first appeared almost fifty years ago, and since then this edge-of-the-chair novel hasn&rsquo,t lost a step. It&rsquo,s the story of Paul Kavanagh, a burnt-out ex-Green Beret who copes with what we&rsquo,ve since learned to call PTSD by retiring to a dime-sized islet in the Florida Keys. There he lives a determinedly simple life, his human contact limited to a weekly visit to a storekeeper on a nearby island.Then George Dattner turns up with a plan. A CIA op, he has inside knowledge of a scheduled shipment of military goods from an army base in South Dakota. It&rsquo,s really nasty stuff&mdash,atomic grenades, lethal gas, tactical weaponry that could be a game-changer for a border war or insurgency. And he&rsquo,s got a buyer lined up. All he needs is a partner, because the way he&rsquo,s got it figured, hijacking the shipment is a job that the right two men can pull off.Kavanagh signs on.The operation is brilliantly planned and executed, but not without a few surprises along the way. But the greatest surprise of all is a shocking denouement that will hit you as hard as it hit readers half a century ago.This Classic Crime Library ebook edition of Such Men Are Dangerous contains as a bonus the opening chapter of the next book in the series, Not Comin&rsquo, Home to You.
