Sinopse

Richard Hannay’s mundane life is shattered when a man is murdered in his flat, leaving behind a secret that could trigger a world war. Forced to flee to the Scottish Highlands, he becomes a fugitive hunted by both the law and a ring of ruthless spies. With a cryptic code as his only clue, Hannay must use every ounce of his wit to survive and expose the truth. This quintessential spy novel set the gold standard for the "man on the run" archetype. It is a breathless, high-velocity journey through suspense and patriotic duty.
