"I liked this book quite a lot. I also read about John Buchan during this time. He had an interesting life. Knowing a little about him made the book even more enjoyable."

" This is one of the later books of Hannay and is the one in which he marries. "
— Mellie, 10/11/2013 -
" This third and final book more than made up for the rather tortuous second book. The last half dozen or so chapters were great, even if I did guess the ending. "
