About this book

The master criminal Caesar Valentine is rich, suave and seemingly untouchable. He has confounded Scotland Yard time and time again, stealing and killing beyond the long arm of the law. Hallet of the London C.I.B. thinks he has a solution though. He will recruit a special agent, designated Number Six, that no one will know the identity of and who will operate completely off the books. Number Six's sole goal is to infiltrate Caesar Valentine's inner circle and take him down. Who is this mysterious Number Six and will they succeed where all others have failed? - Summary by Ben Tucker
