Following the end of the First World War Richard Hannay, the hero of John Buchan's The Thirty-nine Steps, Greenmantle and Mr.Standfast, has retired to the Cotswolds with his wife and young son. There, news comes to him of three kidnappings and a plot of political and financial magnitude that threatens to shake the world. Hannay abandons his Gloucestershire idyll to counter the threat, and the ensuing adventure takes him from the frenetic dance-halls and high society of 1920's London to a gripping climax in the wild Scottish Highlands where he meets his most formidable enemy.
