Waste Not, Want Not

Something s rotten in the garbage business and CURE is ready to take out the trash . . . Mayana a South American country known only for a mass cult suicide is poised to become the salvation of a trash-choked globe.

An ingenious new device called the Vaporizer can turn garbage into thin air and trash into cash for the beleaguered nation. And what could be a more beauteous sight for a global environmental summit than barges piled high with the world s smelly refuse parading through Mayana s harbor.

Actually, Dr. Harold Smith smells trouble, and with the U.S. President headed for the summit, he dispatches Remo and Chiun to the scene, posing as garbage scientists. And not a moment too soon, since torpedoes are sinking garbage scows left and right, leaving a stinking mess and a huge crisis.

It s clear that nobody including a Japanese industrialist, anex-Soviet premier turned peacenik environmental tree hugger, and the president of Mayana himself can be trusted, specially when the Destroyer uncovers a diabolical plot of global domination that promises to totally trash the free world . . . Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
