{"product_id":"9781590174753","title":"Rogue Male","description":"1930-something:  a professional hunter is passing through an unnamed Central European  country that is in the thrall of a vicious dictator. The hunter wonders  whether he can penetrate undetected into the dictator’s private  compound. He does. He has the potential target in his sites and is  wondering whether to pull the trigger when security catches up with him.  Imprisoned, tortured, doomed to a painful death, the hunter makes an  extraordinary and harrowing escape, fleeing through enemy territory to  the safety of his native England. But that safety is delusive: his  pursuers will not be diverted from their revenge by national borders;  the British government cannot protect him without seeming to endorse his  deed. The hunter must flee society, and he goes literaly underground,  like a fox to its earth. The hunter has become the hunted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeoffrey Household’s \u003ci\u003eRogue Male\u003c\/i\u003e is a classic thriller and a triumph of suspense. Described by Household  as a “bastard offspring of Stevenson and Conrad,” the book is no less  remarkable as an exploration of the lure of violence, the psychology of  survivalism, and the call of the wild.","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134233723120,"sku":"9781590174753","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781590174753_p0.jpg?v=1763801924","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781590174753","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
