The Chinese Paymaster by Nicholas Browne

The Chinese Paymaster

by Nicholas Browne

The Cold War Blazes Hot As Killmaster Hunts A Diabolically Clever Double Agent.

A Double Agent Sets Up America For Takeover

Three separate incidents in three different countries. The first incident occurs in a small Chinese village where an old scientist is executed. The next day the CIA learn they have lost one of its most valuable agents. The second incident occurs in the Laotian jungle where an American officer and his guerrilla band are bombed by Chinese planes. An important American operation is sabotaged. The last incident occurs in an posh NYC bar. Thailand's UN delegate is assassinated. Somebody sprays cyanide into the diplomats face hours before he was to vote against China. 

All three incidents were linked to a Red Chinese paymaster. Person, male or female, was unknown. The method of operation was within the US intelligence network. It was determined the paymaster was on a tans-Atlantic jet on the first lap of a charter flight around the world. It was Nick's mission to find the paymaster among the plane's passengers. But somebody has betrayed Nick and the Chinese move in for the kill long before he has boarded the plane.
