First published in 1915, John Buchan’s seminal thriller follows Richard Hannay as he becomes embroiled in a dangerous international conspiracy. Set against the backdrop of pre-World War I Britain, the narrative masterfully blends high-stakes espionage with the classic tropes of the man-on-the-run adventure. This foundational work established many of the conventions now standard in the modern spy thriller genre.
