WOULD YOU BELIEVE . . .
That this is Max Smart’s most mixed-up, mangled mission ever? And just for good measure, how
about a frantic fiasco . . . a bombastic bungle . . . or a chilly silly?
You’d better believe it, for in this outlandish spy adventure, Max is at his muddle-minded best—or
worst—whichever way you want to look at it.
As THE SPY WHO WENT OUT TO THE COLD, Max keeps getting into hot water on just about
every page. But when the heat’s on, Max just relies on his icy nerves and plays it cool. Only Max
would try to reach the North Pole via Africa and not think it strange. 99 doesn’t think it’s strange,
either. She just thinks Max is strange. And you know something—she’s right.
But that’s what makes Max the hard-headed, harebrained hero he is—and that’s also what makes THE
SPY WHO WENT OUT TO THE COLD the most hilarious, hard-to-believe case in the secret files of
CONTROL.
