Story summaries

• Mrs. Pollifax and the Hong Kong Buddha
• By Dorothy Gilman
• Something is amiss in Hong Kong...and the CIA is so worried they've dispatched their most unusual spy to handle the situation. So Emily Pollifax again dons one of her delightful flowered hats and charms her way through treacherous waters. Amid the gaily-coloured banners and exotic little shops that line Hong Kong's teeming streets, Mrs. Pollifax unearths a plot of stunning proportions--a terrorist plan born out of an old Chinese conflict. As she sets out to foil the operation, she enlists the aid of an odd assortment of characters: a reformed cat burglar, a timid psychic, a lonely housekeeper. An intrepid team for a gem of a caper, full of fun and thrills.


• Robert, My Son
• By Henry Denker
• What had gone wrong with Robbie Ward? He'd always been the perfect son--a born leader, a brilliant student, an outstanding athlete. Claire and Don Ward were immensely proud of the boy they had adopted nearly sixteen years ago. But suddenly Robbie was different. He was moody, his behaviour erratic, even dangerous. It wasn't merely growing pains; he wasn't the same boy anymore. To his frightened parents, Robbie had become a stranger. What had caused this radical change? Could a doctor find a way to bring back the old Robbie before it was too late? Henry Denker, a favourite Condensed Books author whose novels include Outrage and Horowitz and Mrs. Washington, has again written a story full of compassion and wisdom.


• The Double Man
• By William S. Cohen and Gary Hart
• It begins with a stunning act of violence: the family of the U.S. Secretary of State are brutally murdered as their limousine moves through Washington streets. An isolated attack? Or part of a systematic campaign of terror? Thomas Chandler, a Senator from Connecticut and possible presidential candidate, is determined to find out. Led on by a mysterious informant known only as Memory, Chandler discovers sinister links between government agents and a shadowy underworld. Ignoring great dangers, he presses on until he uncovers the ultimate secret: a spy, code name Eagle, is hidden in the highest echelons of American power. And to flush him out, Chandler must take the most desperate gamble of his life. "The Double Man takes us inside the real world of superpower intelligence, counterintelligence and counter terrorism. It's a double score: entertaining and informative." --Dan Rather


• This Shining Land
• By Rosalind Laker
• Norway, 1940--German forces have struck without warning. And suddenly this peaceful, defenceless country is in the grip of a Nazi reign of terror. But wherever there are men and women with the will to be free, there is always hope. Overnight a resistance movement is born, led by brave men like Steffen Larsen, dedicated to liberating their homeland. This Shining Land is the story of the Norwegians' fight against oppression. It is also the story of beautiful, young Johanna Ryen--a valiant resister whose growing love for Steffen Larsen is constantly threatened by the war that has drawn them together. A stunning novel that shows what human courage can do in the face of adversity.
