Daring tales of kidnap and rescue, assassination and revenge, the
politics of death and espionage, these are the themes of this
latest volatile concoction of classic and new writing. The days of
empire and traditional war have been replaced by cyber warfare but
the subtle, lethal methods of agents and spies remain the same, and
so has the power of great writing, with stories here to chill and
intrigue every reader. Classic authors include Arnold Bennett,
Ernest Bramah, John Buchan, G.K. Chesterton, Joseph Conrad, Arthur
Conan Doyle, R. Austin Freeman, Rudyard Kipling, Maurice Leblanc,
Arthur B. Reeve, Sapper, Ellen Wood.
