The Saint Sees It Through by Leslie Charteris

Simon Templar Fights An International Dope Ring


The Saint pits himself against a lovely lady, 
and unflappable psychiatrist, 
and a maze of murder.


The Saint, who sometimes travels under the name Simon Templar, collides with the weirdest group of sinister characters he's ever met, including a mysterious European psychiatrist, a monstrous glandular freak, and a peculiar lady poet. Something sinister linked them all together, and Simon has to find out what it was. The key might be the suave shrink. Then again, it might be Avalon Dexter, the sexy singer with the sincere smile. And the gift for getting The Saint tangled up in the murderous riddle.
