The Arms of Kali

The Destroyer #59

Airline passengers are dying—strangled, with yellow scarves—and no one’s sure who’s responsible, or why it’s happening. CURE takes interest when it becomes apparent that the murders are exacting a toll on the economy, destroying the travel industry. It seems like an easy job for Remo and Chiun, until they discover a legendary Indian goddess lurking behind it all: Kali. She has a fifteen-hundred-year-old score to settle with the Destroyer, and won’t be happy until Remo submits. In a battle with the divine, Sinanju may not win and Chiun is unable to interfere, leaving Remo to fight a force that could lay claim to his very soul. 

Remo Williams is The Destroyer, an all-American cop recruited—through highly unorthodox methods—into a secret government law-enforcement organization. Trained in the esoteric martial art of Sinanju by his aged Korean mentor, Chiun, Remo is America's last line of defense against mad scientists, organized crime, ancient undead gods, and anything else that threatens the Constitution. An action-adventure series leavened with social and political satire, the Destroyer novels have been thrilling readers worldwide for decades.
