The Soviet Mission to the U.N. hinted that she has been kidnapped; Washington claimed it knew nothing. But unofficially the girl had to be found, and the job went to Lloyd Nicolson, Counterstroke's number one man.## The trail of the lovely young Russian led Nicholson to a Vermont ski lodge, and to New York and Chicago?as an unsavoury hoodlum, his voluptuous mistress, an agent "from the other side", and an eager-beaver Counterstroke operative compounded the swiftly developing intrigue. Lloyd Nicolson's assignment also led to the danger of the most frightening kind?in the person of a mysterious figure whose war was with the mind.## ## INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note.

But the police believe she may be a murderer. Could they be right? Or will Perry Mason and his clever assistants, Paul Drake and Della Street be able to prove her innocence? --- MYSTERIOUSER AND MYSTERIOUSER by George Bagby --- (A book in the Inspector Schmidt series) --- Bagby is strolling in Central Park when he meets a small boy, alone, near the Alice in Wonderland statues. He interrupts when a stranger offers to take the boy home to his parents. Eventually, Bagby (and with him Inspector Schmidt) meets the parents, the Browns, who have of course fired their negligent nursemaid. Bagby is almost killed leaving the Browns' apartment, but Schmidt easily figures out Mr. Brown's odd behavior, and captures a murderer. --- THE WAITING GAME by Patrick Wayland --- Lloyd Nicholson is the most disadvantaged of international counterspies. He has only one leg and absolutely no official status. His organization is Counterstroke, privately run, top secret Communist watchers. They count on him for everything, even skiing on one leg in Vermont to whence has leapt the ballerina daughter of a Soviet politician. The run leads back to the fleshpots of N.Y. City and Nicholson stumps along with the same Bond-ed virility and bright chat he showed in "Double Defector" and "Counterstrike". . .
