One of the last and best of the 'Lost Race' novels. Plausibly set in the American Southwest, in an area that is still blank and uncharted on most maps, five men and one woman, all for different reasons, look for a hidden tribe of American Indians. The characters' motivations and reactions are well written in a novel that is suspenseful and captivating.
Good thriller about 3 American soldiers who are sent into Japan in August 1945 to convince a group of Japanese to leave Nagasaki. As always in a good thrller, things are not quite what they seem.
