CROSSTIRE OF PASSION

Three men and one woman. who found the terrors of a savage land easier to face than the dark, unknown places of their hearts.

MURRY HAYDEN, the husband. A brilliant sci-entist, but a failure as a man. Guilt and jealousy drove him to a desperate gamble with death to prove his manhood.

BERYL, the wife. Beautiful, resiless, unfulfilled, she had lived on the fringe of life. Then she met Smitty and discovered the reckless, passionate stranger that hid beneath her reserve.

SMITTY. the expedition guide. Soldier of fortune, orphan of the wilderness. His fists were more deadly than a gun. He knew that if he waited long enough Beryl would come to him.

TAI, son of a chief, but the white man's servant. His secret hunger for Beryl exploded the triangle. and brought the journey to its shattering climax.

Four people caught in the crossfire of elemental passions, adrift in a world primitive and untamed.
