Description

Enter the Saint by Leslie Charteris introduces readers to the charismatic and daring Simon Templar, known as the Saint. He's a vigilante on the side of the law but not entirely within it, dispensing his unique brand of justice one criminal at a time.

In this collection of three early adventures, the Saint's reputation begins to soar as he takes on a variety of adversaries, including thieves, smugglers, and killers. In "The Man Who Was Clever," he faces off against Edgar Hayn, a cunning drug smuggler who underestimates the Saint's ingenuity. "The Policeman with Wings" sees the Saint outsmarting Inspector Teal in a hunt for diamonds on Dartmoor, while in "The Lawless Lady," the Saint and his gang confront sea-faring swindlers, leading to unexpected romance.

With each thrilling adventure, "Enter the Saint" showcases the Saint's quick wit, resourcefulness, and commitment to justice, solidifying his status as a beloved and enduring character in the world of detective fiction. Readers are in for a captivating ride as they join the Saint in his quest to right the world's wrongs, one clever escapade at a time.
