Gregory Sallust

''Before there was James Bond, there was Gregory Sallust.'' Tina Rosenberg, Salon.com
Come Into My Parlour is the sixth in Dennis Wheatley''s bestselling Gregory Sallust series featuring the debonair spy Gregory Sallust, a forerunner to Ian Fleming''s James Bond.

In Come Into My Parlour, British secret agent Gregory Sallust is in the Soviet Union, just as the Communist nation enters war against Nazi Germany. There to counter Gregory''s plans is his arch-enemy, Gruppenführer Grabber, as anxious as ever to settle the long-standing score which has existed between them.

As plot and counter-plot carry the story to a Swiss lakeside villa, the final scenes are played out in a sinister castle situated deep in the heart of a German forest.
