THE MELTING MAN (русское название - "Тающий человек")
'Panda grabbed me by the wrist, hauled me up, dropping her shoulders as she did, and I went cartwheeling over her and hit the floor on my face. Her weight dropped on my back and a pair of long legs took a scissors grip round my neck, almost choking me. '"For proper likings, honey," she said, "we begin with gentle love play." She twisted my right arm hard and I shouted . . .'
'England, France, Switzerland, Italy: things happen¬ing everywhere, not least Miss Panda Bubakar, six' foot four of jolly African man-hunger, my nominee for the year's freshest character.' The Times
'Victor Canning has never been in better form. .. crisp, inventive, witty, terrifying . . .'

various others... Victor Canning at the top of his form' (Sun)
