  • The Touch of Death [top]
    First published in 1954 in Great Britain
    Reprinted in 1971 by Magnum Books (Prestige Books), NY in paperback

Story: Bleek tomorrow. The ore, first discovered in an uranium mine, attracted no special attention until the scientist who worked at refining it to a pure state died. The metal might have been the stuff of the foundations of Hell, for no one could touch it and live...and even the victims of its strange curse passed on the virulence to others. Then someone learned how to control the terrible metal, and Dr. Palfrey and the agents of Z5 found themselves facing the most insidious and terrifying opponent of all time!

  • The Sleep [top]
    First published in 1964 in Great Britain
    Published in 1964 in the US by Lancer Books, NY in paperback

Story: The first victim had been asleep for more than three years. The best scientists and doctors were unable to find out what was wrong with him, and at last they gave up, letting his wife take him home to sleep away the rest of his life...or die. Then an entire African village was seized into a frenzy of mad dancing that stopped only when the villagers collapsed into that same sleep...and Dr. Palfrey and the agents of Z-5 found themselves confronting one of the most terrifying threats to the world they had ever known!
