The Saint Mystery Magazine, September 1963

The Saint Mystery Magazine, September 1963 This issue features five mystery stories across 135 pages. Leslie Charteris contributes "The Angel's Eye," in which the Saint arrives in Amsterdam ostensibly for vacation but becomes entangled when an English couple approaches him at dinner. They've lost a half-million-dollar blue diamond called "the Angel's Eye"—a gem Upwater, a Bond Street jeweler of thirty years, delivered to a local cutter named Hendrik Jonkheer, only to have Jonkheer deny ever receiving it. The story follows Charteris's characteristic blend of intrigue and cosmopolitan settings. The issue also includes contributions from Michael Innes, Andrew Garve, Philip MacDonald, August Derleth, and George Harmon Coxe. An editorial note by Charteris discusses the magazine's cover photography.
