The Warlock
It was the notation "witches spawn warlocks" on his personal dossier that marked Polish-born Anson Bolda as out of the ordinary. And *that* his assignments certainly were, even for one in his deadly line of work. Bolda's first mission to Poland, his release from a Soviet prison, his response to a "Help Wanted" ad in a newspaper are all links in a chain of wild adventure and danger. It is a chain that leads from Gdansk, to Moscow, to Washington, and finally to the apartment of a strange old man in St. Louis... and an ending that will leave the reader gasping with surprise.

I first read this book back in the 1970s. It's a somewhat convoluted thriller of its time, and I read it front-to-back in an evening. I am a big fan of Wilson Tucker's work. I bought the paperback first, then tracked down a hardcover for my library. I've loaned the pb out several times to friends/relatives and they've said they liked it a lot.
Some people have said there is a vague supernatural element to this work, but I can't say that I remember it.
