Buchan, John, 1875-1940 (Author). Case, David. (Added Author).

Summary:

Reluctantly posing as a pacifist, Richard Hannay infiltrates an anti-war league to capture an unimpeachable German spy. Mr. Standfast, the second in the series of five novels following Hannay's exploits, picks up after Hannay has returned home from the Somme and is working for the War Office under an assumed name. A brigadier still under forty, he is taken out of the military for a second round in the spy game. The only instructions he's given: take up his old identity as a mining engineer from South Africa, and pose as a staunch pacifist. As Hannay himself put it: "to go into Germany as an anti-British Afrikaner was a stoutish adventure, but to lounge about at home talking rot was a very different-sized job."
