SYNOPSIS |
|
To many people Sir Edward Leithen ranks after Richard Hannay and Sandy Clanroyden as John Buchan's most enigmatic and exciting character study. They will be deeply interested in this last and greatest of Sir Edward's adventures, set in the magnificent background of the Canadian North. It is curiously appropriate to our troubled times, with its beautiful and reasoned faith in things eternal. It is not a novel for timid escapists, but will be a source of strength and encouragement for all who look clear-eyed, as Leithen did, at life and death.
