3.0 out of 5 stars Well written and fast paced
This is an early book from Jack Higgins. The story revolves around a British secret
agent who infiltrates a prison to discover who is behind some high profile jailbreaks.
The story is somewhat hard to believe but Higgins does a great job of keeping you interested.
Good book for a plane ride.

In Dark Side of the Street, British Intelligence generously allows Scotland Yard to utilize the services of one of its most able agents, Paul Chavasse. A mysterious mastermind known as The Baron has been busting dangerous criminals out of prison and Scotland Yard needs someone to convincingly pose as a prisoner in order to infiltrate The Baron's nefarious operation from the inside. Chavasse agrees to go undercover, even to the extent of pulling a brazen payroll robbery in order to get himself arrested.
This early Jack Higgins novel is an excellent example of 1960s action-adventure British style. Though the plotting is a bit simplistic, Dark Side of the Street is a smoothly written, fast paced tale that grabs the reader's attention in chapter 1 and holds it until the very end. A 4 star effort. Recommended to fans of the genre.
