Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The Saint was a long-running (1963-1969) British TV series based on characters created by Leslie Charteris. Roger Moore stars as Simon Templar, a handsome soldier-of-fortune of dubious principles and morals, but a handy man to have around whenever someone truly deserving is in distress. The Fiction Makers originated as a two-part Saint adventure, first telecast as episodes #104 and #105 in 1968 then released theatrically as a feature film. This time, Templar is assigned to protect famed novelist Amos Klein from vengeful gangsters. The assignment turns out to be a pleasurable one when "Amos Klein" is revealed to be a gorgeous woman (Sylvia Syms). The Fiction Makers was written by John Kruse and Harry W. Junkin.
