'I snapped the switch, but there was nobody there. Then I saw something in the far corner which made me drop my cigar and fall into a cold sweat.'

When Richard Hannay is warned of an assassination plot that has the potential to take Britain into a war, and then a few days later discovers the murdered body of the American that warned him in his flat, he becomes a prime suspect. He flees to the moors
of Scotland and a spirited chase begins as he is pursued by the police and the German spies involved with stealing British plans.

Buchan's tale unfolds into one of the seminal and most influential 'chase' books, mimicked by many, yet unrivalled in the tension and mystery created by his writing. Buchan reveres Hannay as an ordinary man who puts his country's good before his own and
the classic themes of the novel influenced many films and subsequent 'man-on-the-run' novels.


Richard Hannay 41 éves, jól szituált, jóképű agglegény meglehetősen biztonságos unalomban tölti napjait Londonban.
Egy napon egy West End-i kabaré előadásán összeakad egy elbűvölő fiatal nővel, és ettől a pillanattól kezdve vége az egyhangú létnek, Hannay egy csapásra őrült gyilkossági és kémhistória középpontjában találja magát...
