About This Book

A story from Dornford Yates' later career, of stolen treasure, set against a backdrop of World War II: adventure, a travelling circus and much more besides. Lots of favourite Yates characters are here, as well as some new ones, like the Portuguese mule in trousers, and a few striking villains. This is the legendary Chandos' final fictional appearance. A tense, assured plot and vintage comedy from a master of the genre.
