About this listen

The Saint is back - 50y audiobooks are now available starring the deboair classic crime hero.

Simon Templar is the Saint - daring, dazzling, and just a little disreputable. On the side of the law, but standing outside it, he dispenses his own brand of justice one criminal at a time.

In these three early adventures, the Saint's reputation starts to rise, as he tackles thieves, smugglers, and killers. < /p>

In "The Man Who Was Clever" he outwits Edgar Hayn, a drug smuggler who thinks he's smarter than everyone. In "The Policeman with Wings" he stays one step ahead of Inspector Teal in the hunt for diamonds on Dartmoor, and in "The Lawless Lady " one of the Saint's gang helps him deal with sea-faring swindlers, only to fall in love.

Leslie Charteris was born in Singapore and moved to England in 1919. He left Cambridge University early when his first novel was accepted for publication. He wrote novels about the Saint throughout his life, becoming one of the 20th century's most prolific and popular authors.

Enjoyable stories. And performed brilliantly by Mr Telfer. Who I didn't realise until half way through was the chap from Bergerac.

Quality fun

Having always loved the TV Saint, the original Charteris creation came as a little bit of a shock.

However it wasn't very long before I was completely enthralled by this amazing 'Hero' and his organisation of 'Saints' their motivations and magical adventures cleaning up the crooks and crime Lords of London and beyond.

Charteris's writing is lighter than Mickey Spillane's but it has the same no nonsense pace of plot and intelligence to make this a great listen.

Fast paced, witty and fun.
