Summary: Saint vs Ferocious Villains, Saint vs Mr. Teal
Review: This book contains three stories; "The Inland Revenue", "The Million Pound Day" and "The Melancholy Journey of Mr. Teal". They are typical Saint stories; the Saint fights a life-and-death fight with a ferocious villain on one hand, and tweaks the nose of poor Inspector Teal on the other hand. The feud between the Saint and Teal reaches to the bitterest. In later books such as "The Saint and Mr. Teal" or "The Saint Intervenes", their relationship gets milder."The Inland Revenue" and "The Melancholy Journey of Mr. Teal" are not so good as I expected. I know the Saint is never an infallible man, but he is too careless and makes too many mistakes in these stories. But "The Million Pound Day" is SUPERB! I really LOVE it. Very thrilling, fast-paced, action-packed and few dull parts. One of the best Saint stories. 5 stars for this one.
