The characters and events portrayed in this book are fictitious. Any similarity to real persons, living or dead, is coincidental.

The fiction world of today needs a “Saint” more than it ever did. For years now that scene has been dominated by the “anti-heroes'— those grim gray operators in a sunless sub-culture where global issues are worked out with totally unemotional pragmatism, those hapless uninspired puppets manipulated and expended by ruthlessly dedicated little brothers of Big Brother. It made morbidly fascinating narrative, but it never gave anyone a lift until it climaxed in the hyper-gadgeted parodies of 007 extravaganzas. That there will always be a public old-style hero, who had a clear idea of justice, and a more than technical approach to love, and the ability to have some fun with his crusades. Listen and enjoy.
