Or perhaps either of the two White Russians, rich gambling den owners, who were prepared to risk anything to get their hands on certain information.Or even the luscious Lenore, the missing man's sister, whose baffling evasions obsessed Slim as much as her soft clinging curves.
But before he could trap the killer and solve the boyfriend's disappearance, Slim had to undergo a horrifying spell in the old summer house, foil the spy ring's ruthless murder plan and mastermind an ingenious stunt which amazed even Scotland Yard!
