Pub. in 1951. A mystery written by one of our most famous American writers, Paul Gallico. a work of fiction based on the thinking and tactics of the government behind the iron curtain and the means by which "public confessions" are eliceted in the iron-curtain countries. A horrifying thing was done to Jimmy Race, and his body returned to prove they'd done it. Paul Gallico knows how to write so as to horrify, intrigue, and enchant all at the same time.
