| Summary |
When a Canadian police inspector investigates a murder, he is hurtled into an adventure involving foreign spies, American gangsters and an explosive high-tech secret that could change the world. In a daring attempt to seize a brilliant physicist's discoveries, a foreign superpower enlists mobster Joe Victor and his gang in a scheme that will ignite a firestorm of betrayal, murder and global intrigue. Police Inspector Leduc is closing in, but the gangsters bring in their ultimate weapon: the stunning Joyce, a blonde temptress who will teach the scientist a thing or two even he doesn't know! The breathtaking chase leads through the city streets to a pulse-pounding confrontation aboard an enemy cargo ship. |
