King's Mate

The Girl Factory #2

by Robert Franklin Murphy, W.F. Phillipps (Cover Artist)

Su-Lin Kelly can fight like a man–but she's also a beautiful, sexy woman. Just ask the scientist who created her, out of a handful of cells, in a super-secret process for duplicating an individual from a single cell. Su-Lin is also the head of a world-wide espionage agency which can get her into many bizarre and dangerous situations. And the most bizarre of all is when she's called on to track down a defected Russian scientist ... and finds her 'life' on the line in a chess match where the players are human – and to be check-mated is a fate worse than death!

Su-Lin Kelly is a clone, and yet, still a woman. With a mysterious past, she works with her partner-lovers to solve the mystery of missing chess masters. Stumbling upon a privately owned island, a self-made despot, and chess game to the death, she pits her incredible intelligence against the world's best.

Sexy, cruel, and as unapologetic as the first novel (THE GIRL FACTORY), KING'S MATE is a fantastic men's adventure novel with a female protagonist who uses her body and mind to every advantage.

If you love great pulp work, this last novel of Su-Lin Kelly's adventures is not to be missed. Out of print, you will want to search eBay and online used book shops.
