Description: An agent of the British Government is sent on a new and deadly assignment - to snare The Scarperers (a notorious gang of criminals who organise gaol-breaking for long-term prisoners) and Slade, a notorious Russian double agent whom they have recently liberated. The trail leads him to Malta, where he comes face-to-face with these ruthless killers and must outwit them to save his own life. The Scarperers, a brilliantly organized gang that gets long-term inmates out of prison, spring a notorious Russian double agent. The trail leads Owen Stannard to Malta and to the suave killer masterminding the gang. Face-to-face at last with his opponents, Stannard must try to outwit both men - who have nothing to lose and everything to gain by his death.
