Jig Armstrong, Campbell (pseudonym of Campbell Black)
13379 William Morrow and Company, Inc. : A Thomas Congdon Book New York, NY, U.S.A. 1987 First Edition Dust Jacket Very Good Hard Cover Very Good Cream color paper on boards, blue cloth on spine. Volume has minor wear. Jacket has light wear with a few tiny chips on the top rear panel. Now in clear cover. They call him Jig - Jig the dancer - because of his deftness at killing, his nimbleness at eluding capture. Jig has come to America to recover $10 million that was raised for the IRA and then stolen; and hot on his trail is a British counter-terrorist agent, Frank Pagan. While Pagan admires Jig for his style, catching Jig is Pagan's obsession, he knows why Jig has come to American but not who he really is. Pagan and Jig, the dedicated enemies meet, and then at that very moment comes a menace that is so violent and horrible that to prevent it they are forced to work together as reluctant partners. Fine writing, ingenious plot twist, and authentic characters (readers won't soon forget Jig, the best villain to root for since Eye of the Needle or the sensuous, mysterious Celestine). $18.00USD Click here to order or message the dealer
