Brigitte en Acción
· 1971

This Spanish-language pulp magazine issue features "Brigitte en acción" (Brigitte in Action), a spy thriller by Lou Carrigan. The narrative follows CIA agent Brigitte Montfort, a blonde female operative who returns to New York from a completed mission in Guatemala. At the airport, her supervisor Pitzer and colleague Simón deliver roses and grim news: a fellow agent named Simón has been assassinated in Tangier—shot three times in the back. Despite her exhaustion, Brigitte volunteers for the assignment and boards a plane to investigate. In Tangier, she meets local operative Simón, who briefs her on complications: a suspected Russian assassin remains under surveillance, another agent named Muley Hassim has disappeared mysteriously, and the dead agent had been lured to his death by a radio call from Hassim. The text establishes a plot involving espionage operations across North Africa, with unclear connections between the assassination, the missing agent, and the surveillance target.
