SWORD IN SHEATH by Andre Norton

SWORD IN SHEATH

by Andre Norton

Pub Date: Oct. 6th, 1949
Publisher: Harcourt, Brace

A new slant on the old adventure pattern, with a Pacific area setting- in a story of two O.S.S. youths who find civilian life difficult and undertake a mission that offers excitement. They get what they are after,- a lost submarine, ransacked rooms, a host of shady characters. Intrigue runs high and suspense cloaks all, with two Americans in an adventure of wits and daring. Straight adventure, well done, a good "bridging book" to use as bait for the comic addicts.
