3.0 out of 5 stars
Also known as Angels of Doom.,
By Michele L. Worley (Kingdom of the Mouse, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Saint Meets His Match (Hardcover)
(Another possible alternate title is She Was a Lady.)This book is in the middle period of the Saint's career - after his early swashbuckling days, but still during his running battles with Claud Eustace Teal of Scotland Yard. Jill Trelawney (daughter of a distinguished man) in the wake of her father's death and disgrace, has founded the Angels of Doom - a criminal organization with some echoes of the Saint's own early days...how can the Saint resist getting involved?

Saint Saga #07,

This review is from: The Saint Meets His Match (Mass Market Paperback)
"She Was a Lady" (aka "The Saint Meets His Match" aka "The Angels of Doom") is one of the few Saint books from this period not to feature Patricia Holm. The reason, apparently, is that it was originally not a Saint story, but was adapted from one written before the author settled on the Saint as his protagonist of choice.Nevertheless, the adaptation of this full-length story (concerning a battle of wits with a girl out to revenge the framing and consequent suicide of her father) is a thorough one. The Saint's constant adversary Claud Eustace Teal is fully integrated into the story, which is told with the author's usual acerbic wit; and Slinky Dyson and Snake Ganning (both from Enter the Saint) make cameo appearances. And at the end we find out that the Saint and James Bond have more in common than we suspected. P.S. For a list of -- and discussion of -- all Charteris's Saint books, see my So You'd Like To... Guide
