The Satan Bug ...bio-terrorism, crime
Ice Station Zebra ...nukes, arctic
When Eight Bells Toll ...heists at sea, North Atlantic
Where Eagles Dare ...WWII, snatch
Force 10 From Navarone ...WWII, sabotage
Puppet on a Chain ...drugs, Amsterdam, mob
Caravan to Vaccarès...spies, Middle East
Bear Island ...WWII, treasure, arctic
The Way to Dusty Death ...car racing
