Yankee Pasha

Jungle Heat

By Wade Miller

"He ordered her out of his bedroom, but she wasn’t ready to go. Drunkenly she turned toward him and began to sway sinuously. The next thing she felt was his fist across her face – and then his arms pulling her to his body. Eager for front-page publicity, Roxy Powell accepted a movie deal in a ravged land ruled by a man she swore to hate. But in the heart of the jungle she came to him – and acknowledged the urgency of her desire."

Dead Man's Walk

By Richard S. Prather

"Three dead and Shell Scott to go… It was a charming island. Just like the travel posters said, white beaches, blue lagoons, and exotic girls in bikinis. Plenty of local color, too. Like three dead bodies and a voodoo priest who sticks pins in dolls and waits for you to die. Superstition, I persuaded myself. Still, there were those three stiffs. And nobody could determine the cause of their deaths. So I decided to poke around the native haunts with my luscious companion. Then the gorgeous tomato vanished and I found myself with another kind of doll. It looked just like me – and it had a long needle stuck through the heart!"

Not Too Narrow... Not Too Deep

By Richard Sale

"They were fugitives from horror. ‘We’re capsizing!’ Philip LaSalle’s scream was lost in the fury of the storm. Wind, rain and towering waves lashed the tiny sloop as it reeled crazily in a sea gone mad. Then George Verne, at the tiller, was washed over the side… They were desperate men – murderers, thieves and rapists – fleeing from a convict isle. One of their group had died of fever in the jungle. A second had died at sea. Now here was the third swept overboard. Who would be next? Could Jean Cambreau, the miracle working stranger from nowhere, answer that? Was he a devil or an angel? The men weren’t sure. It was Cambreau against the lot of them and only God knew how the dread nightmare would end. A stirring tale of escape and danger on the high seas."

Before her stood a half-naked, blond giant and a bare-bosomed, goddess-like beauty. He was Jon- part man, part god, sole ruler of this tropic paradise. And she was Vera- his magnificent, savage-like mate. Who were they? Where had they come from? What did his plans and her violent jealousy hold for Elsa Meade? As she was forced to delve deeply into the secrets of this mad and mystic island, Elsa was to find a love, a horror, and a mystery no other woman had ever known.”

From swashbuckling pirates to rugged Navy men - all are sailors who knew how to handle ships - or women - in a world where violence was the law, and men feared nothing but the cruel sea."

The Angry Mountain

By Hammond Innes

"The villa was very still in the red mantle of the volcano: hot and airless. Zina had brought me here and filled me with liquor. Maybe that’s how she liked her men. Sure of myself now, I entered the room locking the door after me. Zina murmured sleepily and sat up showing me her nakedness. I went over to her then and sat on the bed. If this was a trap it meant death – BUT I HAD TO DO IT!"

Half-Caste

By John B. Thompson

"His mission was ‘women’! Rayne Cantey had a curious name- and a curious mission. It might mean his death, but it made accessible the most exotic assortment of girls ever to tempt a susceptible American. Take enchanting Taneeta, half savage, half Dutch. Or Loa. Or those Chinese women, the lovely witches! Or blonde Marlene, from the states, outrageously sensual and built like a burlesque queen… Rayne knew his only escape from peril was to find a certain small steel box- just as his sole retreat from those gorgeous girls was to marry one of them. But which? He meant to be sure… even if he had to sample every pretty miss between Hong Kong and Honolulu…!"

The Half-Caste

By Dan Cushman

"She had passions as swift as a tropic storm ... Dougherty thought as he eyed the tall brunette with lustrous hair. She was dressed in white, a yachting dress typical of American women in the tropics, but her body moved easily under it, and her hips might well have borne a sarong. Her skin was very dark and soft, Pacific-island dark. There was a definite Eastern cast to the widely-spaced slightly-slanted eyes. To Dougherty she was, like a tropic night- dark, smooth, and glowing with only the most subtle hint of the savagery that lay beneath. She was beautiful and warm and infinitely desirable. And she had need of him..."

We will be lost among the savages, prey to headhunters, and fallen on ungodly ways. Here is the dream of every man, told anew by Adam Shaw, author of Signet’s Isle of Delight, in a masterful tale of the restless, wandering hearts of even those who are shipwrecked on paradise."
