I had just finished breakfast and was filling my pipe when I got Bullivant's telegram.
WWI spy Richard Hannay is called in to investigate rumours of an uprising in the Muslim world, and undertakes a perilous journey through enemy territory to meet up with his friend Sandy in Constantinople.
In 1915 he published his most famous novel, the thriller ‘The Thirty-Nine Steps’, which was adapted into a film by Alfred Hitchcock in the 1930s.
The book opens in November 1915, with Hannay and his friend Sandy convalescing from wounds received at the Battle of Loos.
With its skillful blend of political insight and heart-stopping action, Greenmantle was a huge step forward in the development of the modern espionage novel.
Tasked with unraveling a mysterious message, Hannay travels through Germany and the Middle East, searching for the elusive religious leader ''Greenmantle''. Sequel to The Thirty-Nine Steps and precursor to Mr. Standfast
It is an excellent mystery book for individuals who are going to stimulate their brain.
