The book-length "Count 200 -- and Die" is by Robert Kanigher, Irv Novick and Murphy Anderson. A Chinese scientist, Dr. Lu, poisons Iris Allen and forces the Flash to surrender. She then brainwashes the speedster into believing that she is Iris. Dr. Lu, brainwashes the Flash into thinking he is bringing hairspray to his wife when he is really attempting to assassinate the president of the United States.
The Scarlet Speedster shakes off the brainwashing when he realizes that Dr. Lu's kiss did not taste like that of the real Iris. He botches the assassination job, then rescues his wife. Dr. Lu tries to use a missile to kill the Flash, but in the end her own island base is destroyed.
