{"product_id":"2940014587624","title":"Huntingtower","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 Bolsheviki 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 archvillain 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. It sounds like a convoluted plot, but, it makes sense. A little review like this never really does a thriller justice...","brand":"Good Reading","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47070669177072,"sku":"2940014587624","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014587624_p0.jpg?v=1763612125","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014587624","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
