Richard Hannay is now in his fifties, and settled into a comfortable, ordinary life. But when he is called by an old oath to protect the son of a man he once knew – an heir to the secret of a great treasure – he must throw himself into adventure once more.
Enlisting the help of his old friend Sandy Arbuthnot, now Lord Clanroyden, Hannay is drawn into a dangerous pursuit that takes him from England to Scotland and finally to the remote Island of Sheep in the Norlands.
The final and much-loved Richard Hannay adventure, blending high adventure, atmospheric prose, and classic British derring-do from the author of The Thirty-Nine Steps.
