Tim Frazer Again

Tim Frazer #2

by Francis Drurbridge

The World of Tim Frazer was the longest–running BBC serial of the early Sixties, and one of the most successful. The popularity of these TV programs inspired Francis Durbridge to write several novels featuring the easygoing engineer–turned–spy Tim Frazer.

When secret service agent Leo Salinger is run over in Amsterdam, fellow agent Tim Frazer is sent to investigate. The driver of the car seems innocent and Frazer decides that Leo's death was misadventure, until he returns to London and finds another corpse...

And another of those typical British writings... move slowly initially but pack a punch. Tim Frazer is someone I will looking for though it is Richards who impresses me most

Tim Frazier travels to Amsterdam to follow the footsteps of fellow agent Leo Salinger who is run over. What he discovers is a beautiful woman and a web of diamond smugglers. Sadly he's out of favour these days but Francis Durbridge was a genius of twisting plot and this an excellent example of his many television shows from the fifties to the seventies.

Exciting stuff about smuggling from Amsterdam

Lightweight novel adaptation from very popular, long running BBC radio serial in the 60's. Not particularly credible with poor plot line. I won't be rushing to read any of the others.

I like these Tim Frazer adventures more than Paul Temple. They're nice comfort reads.

Another case for engineer turned secret agent Tim Frazer, definitely of its time but a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours. Unabridged on 2 CDs and read by Anthony Head.
