The Assassination Bureau, ltd.

by Jack London

The Assassination Bureau kills people for money. It also has a social conscience. Determined to eliminate only society's enemies, its chief, Ivan Dragomiloff, decides whether or not each murder is "justified." But one day Dragomiloff accepts a contract without knowing the name of the victim and the person marked for death turns out to be himself ... Unfinished when Jack London died, this thrilling novel has been so successfully completed by Robert L. Fish that the reader is challenged to find the point where one writer stops and the other begins. "Fascinating . . . London fans will be delighted to have another story from the master's hands." —Best Sellers "The book is one unified delight—the grandest thriller in years." —The New York Times Book Review
