Bøker av Jack Cartwright

The story is about the career, from a very early age, of a mild-mannered young man who likes, and excels at, all kinds of sporting combat. The thought of using his great talents anywhere outside a sporting arena is anathema to him, but various circumstances along the way combine to reveal a darker side to his nature, which is harnessed by the forces of law and order to h help them to achieve their objects, and he is not too fussy about how he goes about it. It is interesting to see how two separate romances affect the course of hie life.

After a period in which he experiences twists and turns between the quiet life, romance, and danger, as in the earlier book, Little Arrows, John Davis opts for a life of married bliss. However, things do not turn out as planned, and he finds himself back in the fight against crime-his attitude uncompromising, his methods often as violent as those he pursues-and his belief that criminals should experience something of what they hand out before the law, often inadequate in his eyes, takes its course.
