The final of John Buchan's thrillers and the final appearance of Richard Hannay, now in retirement reverie deep in the comfortable Cotswolds. However, he and Sandy [Lord Clanroyden] are roused to action once again to help the son of a lately deceased treasure hunter, called Haraldsen. The heir is acquiring threats from Lancelot Troth, a guy who believes himself ill treated economically by Haraldsen's daddy and seeks revenge and reparation. The objective is complicated when the villain is aided by accomplices prepared to use extortion and child kidnap to attain their aims. The action steps from Norfolk to the Scottish Borders and on to the Norlands where in fact the conspirators are finally confronted in an exciting climax with Hannay's son and Haraldsen's little girl involved in the resolution. Beautiful descriptive passages written by a man naturally at home in the natural world plus some philosophic reflections about finding personal peace and contentment get this to a appropriate end to both Buchan's important contribution to the genre and the annals of Brigadier Standard Richard Hannay-a man of his time but with an everlasting popularity.
