Assignment: Israel by Manning Lee Stokes

Assignment: Israel

by Manning Lee Stokes

A Deranged Nazi Killer Out to Destroy the Mideast

He was known as "The Butcher" and he was a former Hitler henchman who was responsible for more murders than any other man alive. Depraved in mind and body, he hungered for men and women with the same insatiable appetite. He was hunted as a war criminal by the Israelis and he lusted for the chance to massacre his enemies. 

A captured Communist document gave the United States the whole story. But finding "The Butcher" and stopping him were something else. Plastic surgery made the first half of the problem impossible while the Arabs' hatred of the Jews choked off the second half. 

The United States was banking on Nick Carter and it supplied him with the most tantalizing helper, a beautiful Israeli agent named Sabra. Sabra had the body of a goddess and the heart of an efficient killing machine. For "The Butcher" a Middle-East holocaust would be a personal victory, but the rest of the world it held a greater meaning. For the Chinese had already started the world towards WW III.

The Filthy Five

Killmaster uncovers a plot to assassinate the President of the United States

A life worth a billion dollars in Chinese gold!

American intelligence had intercepted the message. The Red Chinese were paying one billion dollars to have the US President killed. The money was used to create a super weapon out of five convicted murderers. But the US could not act without proof. This was a mission for only one person, Nick Carter, Killmaster. The nation waited in horror as Nick battled the insurmountable odds. Tortured and a young lady was killed as to avert failure. The assassination plot had to be stopped at all costs, the clock was running out fast.

Four people stood in the way

Dona Lanzos: She was filled with hate for the men who killed her lover. She was more than wiling to use her body as a weapon or revenge.

Harry Crabtree: He hated mankind. He was a sadistic hired killer who got a sickening, terrible kick out of his job.

Malcolm Drake: He could not stop hating his crippled and useless body. Having life and death power over others help to ease the pain. He would torture, betray, and murder for power.

Ramon Ramirez: He was a skilled expert at his work. His work was killing, and Nick was to be his victim.

A Savage Beauty Holds The Key To World Survival

A Time For Death

• The owner of a notorious London sex club is found butchered, his body hacked to pieces....
• Portugal's top agent is gunned down in broad daylight, on a crowded street...…
• A two-bit P.I. from Brooklyn is knifed in the heart, after meddling unwittingly in international espionage....

George Gross Cover

All they had in common was the Princess da Gama, the breathtakingly uniquely depraved creature, Nick Carter's partner in Macao. The Princess was a wild tormented beauty hunter on three continents. The Portuguese wanted to force her into living death. The Red Chinese wanted to turn her into a sex puppet, a helpless pawn in Chicom espionage. The U.S. desperately needed her help. She knew the man whose maniacal whim could start an international holocaust.

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.

The Weapon Of Night by Valerie Moolman

The Weapon Of Night

by Valerie Moolman

N3 Joins Forces With Three Foreign To Save America From Annihilation.

Blackouts!

The eight state blackout of November 1965 had provided a neat scenario for nasty minds. A nation that was totally electrified could be rendered totally helpless. A mere inconvenience could be intensified into a weapon....the weapon of night.

Now was the time for more blackouts, the flashing lights in the sky, the clouds of stinging fog, the public bewilderment rising to mass hysteria. While the destroyers crept from their holes and total annihilation of the people drew nearer and nearer......

Against this crawling espionage the man from AXE joined the three foreign agents to form a quartet of spies one will never forget. They were the only force between the American people and complete destruction.
