Shailesh Patel | 8 comments Hello, every one I am new here my curiosity leads me here sorry if I make any mistake. This book is actually translated from english to my native language . I am 40 years old now, when I read this book I might be around 7-8 years old then.
I want to read that original book if I find its title and author name .
The name of the main character is NICK . He use a revolver something WILMARE. I think it is pocket book . He find him self in a large enclosed area but he cleverly freed himself by using belt. I remember that when he drive his car he pressed boobs of a lady that may be the main lady character in the book. I remember a dialogue when he did it. This is not a horn of your car mister. In the final part of the story he struggles with the villains and used dead body of them to protect from bullets from villains. That is all I remember, I want to clarify that it was not a literature but ordinary thrilling novel popular way back in 70s. Any help is appreciated,. Thanks in advance.

Diana Welsch | 530 comments Could it be one of the Nick Carter-Killmaster books? He has a gun named Wilhelmina.

Run, Spy, Run is the first one, but there are a ton of these things, so finding your specific volume could be a challenge.

Thanks Cynthiya, for your support.I read this book in my native language Gujrati which was translated from English. I was very young at that time. It was a torn book and very cheap page so I think it must be those paper book written in 70`s. I am not sure about the author`s name because there was not name on any of page. I vaguely remember few things ,that Nick the main character ,was trapped in some sort of warehouse ,where he was tied by villains ,but some how he managed to free himself by his belt . Yes I remember he was tied in a cage. What I remember in the book is I have told before. I know it is difficult to find the correct name of author because there was tons of this kind of novels written. I am not very familiar with those thriller writer except ,james headly chase, robert cook, few of them. I read the book with the above mention book title THE VULTURE IS A PATIENT BIRD ,because it was written on the book, But not on this specific book. I must find the other option suggested by Diana. Thank you and please keep pouring in future.

Shailesh, adding details of the book's genre and plot to your header will get more people clicking on it. Many users don't click unless they know the genre and the main plot points.
