NIGHT BOAT TO PARIS

Post war life in England hasn't been kind to Duncan Reece. So when Boyler offers to pay him to retrieve a special bit of microfilm that the Reds also want to get ahold of, he accepts the top secret mission. The film shows the plans for a nuclear-powered space station and there have already been men murdered for it. Reece is no longer a patriot, but Boyler isn't looking for a patriot-he's looking for a thief.

So Reece puts together a team: Tookie, an American ex-GI who has the contacts; Otto Lorenz, a former Nazi known for his efficiency; Samaur, a French giant of a man, for muscle; and the Della Vichia brothers, Gino and Marcus, the guns. The man with the film is hosting an exclusive charity ball at his French estate, and all Reece has to do is commandeer it, steal all the money and jewels... and somehow in all the excitement, find the film-and escape-without letting his team know what he's up to.

Because one of them is a traitor.
