{"product_id":"2940013724334","title":"Huntingtower by John Buchan","description":"In HUNTINGTOWER there is a retired Glasgow grocer who, starting out for a walking tour with a knapsack and a poetry book, finds himself, within twenty-four hours, up to the neck in one of the wildest plots of adventure it ever entered the heart of man to conceive. There is a beautiful Russian princess abducted by Bolsheviks and immured in the lonely castle by the sea; there are hidden jewels, a villainous innkeeper, with a gang of 'tinklers' keeping watch over the princess until the arch-villain arrives in a Danish brig to carry off his helpless victim. How these wicked ones are outmanoeuvred and disposed of by the strategy of Dougal, the captain of a little company of Glasgow street-boys, the 'Gombal Diehards,' with the aid of our retired grocer and a romantic poet, picked up on the march — such is the staple of this fascinating tale of humor and adventure. Dougal is a boy of grit and strategy with no English peer, his nearest kin in fiction being Huck Finn; and the spirited old peasant, Mrs. Morran, will live with the best of Barrie.","brand":"Halcyon Press Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069086023920,"sku":"2940013724334","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013724334_p0.jpg?v=1763584411","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013724334","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
