Summary:

"Adventure awaits! The dark underworld of espionage and crime is lit up by the fatal charms of the gorgeous Modesty Blaise--high priestess of pulp crime and goddess of cult thrillers! In the depths of Central America, Modesty and Willie are embroiled in a case of amnesia, sex-trafficking and priceless jewels, all because of 'A Present for the Princess'. Good and bad are pitted against one another in 'Black Queen's Pawn', as both sides search for a treasure that could mean life--or death! When our heroine encounters 'The Grim Joker' she faces one of her strangest and most disturbed foes. Will she survive this macabre comedy?" -- page 4 of cover.
