Message from Hell

The latest Creasy adventure takes our hero to Vietnam and Cambodia, ostensibly on a mission to rescue a US serviceman taken prisoner twenty-six years earlier during the Vietnam war. In reality, however, the mission is a decoy organised by a sadistic Eurasain woman, Connie Crum, who is a high-ranking officer of the Khmer Rouge. She has long harboured a grudge against Creasy who was responsible for the death of her father. A cat and mouse game between the two principles ensues, as each tries to out guess the other, resulting in a climactic shoot-out in a heavily mined and guarded Buddhist temple hidden in the Cambodian jungle.
