Bulldog Drummond

Following his gritty experiences in the trenches of the First World War, the bold and dashing hero, Captain Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond, does derring-do in saving a lady from a cartel of ruthless international criminals.

Bulldog's back! This time, there is a plot to foment a revolution in England, a plot that has left the Police baffled and the nation at the mercy of a master criminal. A disguised clergyman, a beautiful sidekick, an arcane poison, car chases and abductions all fail to see off Hugh Drummond and his gang of ex-Army friends. But when the plotters capture Drummond's wife, the game is up… isn't it? Undaunted, charming, brave and resourceful, Bulldog Drummond is an archetypal English adventure hero, and the forerunner of The Saint and James Bond.

Hugh Drummond has lost none of his trademark wit, charm, and confidence. In investigating the mysterious death of Professor Goodman, who holds the key to a formula for creating diamonds, he uncovers a menacing plot involving the Metropolitan Diamond Syndicate and, inevitably, his seemingly indestructible enemy, the sinister Carl Peterson. Unexpected twists and turns are rife, and the climax sees a thrilling boat chase that makes for fantastic listening.

Hugh Drummond returns in this fourth volume of the Bulldog Drummond series. Drummond must attempt to prove the innocence of an inventor of chemical warfare whose weapon mysteriously goes missing. Drummond is utterly resolute; only one man can be capable of such a sinister plot.
