The Law wasn't the trouble.The real danger was that all the contraband in the Naples area was falling into the hands of one big,vicious organization.Leonardo Volpi was determined to eliminate the smaller outfits,including the single boats.Blair was a one-boat operator, running illicit cargoes in his fast launch across the narrows of the Mediterranean between Naples and Tunis.A broken marriage had driven him into the game - he needed the excitement to help him forget.But now things were different.He had fallen in love again,with Meya Nordstrom,a beautiful Swedish actress who lived on Capri.And one of his friends had been brutally murdered. It was time to get out.But by the time Blair had decided to do that,it was already too late.He found himself fighting a desperate one-man battle against the whole of Volpi's organization; and Meya was inextricably involved.
'SEE NAPLES AND DIE' is a thriller in the true sense of the word,a dramatic action story which moves at a breathless pace from start to finish,and the tension mounts steadily to a sensational and unexpected climax.
