Never published in hardcover before, and the paperback has been out of print for over 20 years! This tale takes place near the end of Doc Savage’s amazing career. working from story notes by Lester Dent, Will Murray presents us with a story of the early Cold War, and a sequel to Lester’s 1948 masterpiece, The Red Spider, in which a more mature and emotionally sophisticated Man of Bronze tackles an international threat which resonates with today’s ecologically-challenged headlines. Doc Savage is tested in ways never before imagined. Everyone changes and grows over time and so did Doc Savage. The plot in The Frightened Fish deals with no less that the possible start of World War III!
