En savoir plus sur le livre

Set against the backdrop of World War I, the narrative follows Brigadier-General Hannay as he is pulled from the Western Front for a covert mission to track a German agent in Britain. Disguised as a pacifist, he navigates the country incognito, employing a copy of Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress to decode messages. The story culminates in the Swiss Alps, where Hannay must thwart a German threat to Europe. Rich in literary references and espionage intrigue, this installment deepens the character's journey amidst the war's chaos.
