About the book

John Buchan's The Thirty-Nine Steps follows Richard Hannay after he becomes unexpectedly involved in an international espionage conspiracy. Falsely suspected of murder, Hannay flees London and attempts to uncover a plot threatening Britain. Fast-moving and suspenseful, the novel became one of the foundational works of the modern spy thriller. After a mysterious visitor is murdered in his London flat, Hannay flees to Scotland while attempting to uncover a plot that threatens British national security. Pursued by both the police and enemy agents, he must rely on intelligence, disguise and quick thinking to survive.
