The Robler Clinic is getting a reputation for far too many deaths during routine operations. A gorgeous female administrator, Kathy Hahl, has discovered a profitable little racket, and her tame anaesthetist, Dan Demmet, has been playing along nicely. But when Nathan David Wilberforce - a man of special interest to the secret government law-enforcement organisation CURE - comes to a premature death at the clinic, Remo and Chiun decide it is time to infiltrate.

Remo Williams is The Destroyer, an ex-cop who should be dead, but instead fights for CURE. Trained in the esoteric martial art of Sinanju by his aged mentor, Chiun, Remo is America's last line of defence.

Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
