That was one HUGE question I had once the casting of Simon Templar's character had been announced (though the name of the actor now escapes me). <br /><br />I don't remember Nina Walden from the "Getaway" story. Now I'll have to go back and look.<br /><br />When will "Return" be released?Brian Drakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01233187184688491057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6736891887729249983.post-19255736348957104582011-06-14T01:55:54.731-07:002011-06-14T01:55:54.731-07:00The most recent "Saint Girl" to appear i...The most recent "Saint Girl" to appear in a Saint novel was Diamond Tremayne in "Capture the Saint." She reappears, albeit briefly in the forthcoming "The Return of the Saint" novel which also features the return of Nina Walden from "The Saint's Getaway." As for Patricia Holm, she will not be making an appearance in the novel, but she is featured in the forthcoming two-hour TV Movie, THE SAINT IN NEW ORLEANS. I know these things because I wrote Capture the Saint and the upcoming The Return of the Saint, and co-wrote the screenplay for The Saint in New Orleans. I agree about Saint Overboard and Saint in New York being darker, but you must admit the Saint's dialog in his gritty New York adventure is, as I described in The Saint: A Complete History, rather like that of Groucho Marx. As the Saint says in Capture the Saint, "When verbosity is outlawed, only outlaws will be verbose."Burl Barerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00246104277722164642noreply@blogger.com
