* THE EIGHTH NOVEL IN THE BESTSELLING MODESTY BLAISE SERIES *
'The finest escapist thrillers ever written' THE TIMES
'Before Buffy, before Charlie's Angels, before Purdy and Emma Peel, there was Modesty Blaise' OBSERVER
When Modesty Blaise and her loyal lieutenant Willie Garvin try to take revenge on a man who mistreated their close friend, Maude Tiller, they never imagined what events would unfold. They discover that another companion, Danny, has not been dead for two years, as they had thought, but instead has been taken to Limbo, a plantation in the jungles of Guatemala. There slaves are tormented by the despotic Mistress of Limbo, aided by her ferocious armed guards.
Modesty allows herself to be captured in order to infiltrate Limbo, but places herself in great danger. For the plantation is to be shut down, and the slaves destroyed. Modesty must incite revolt to save both herself, and the captives, and hope that Willie brings help in time...
Peter O'Donnell began his career working on pre-World War Two comic strips. During the 1950s he became involved with strip cartoons and created the revolutionary series Modesty Blaise, which would be syndicated in more than 42 countries. The strip led to a series of bestselling novels: Modesty Blaise, Sabre-Tooth, I, Lucifer, The Impossible Virgin, Pieces of Modesty, A Taste for Death, The Silver Mistress, Dragon's Claw, The Xanadu Talisman, The Night of the Morningstar, Dead Man's Handle and Cobra Trap.
