关于此电子书

No man in Europe can stop Bulldog Drummond, but now it’s a woman’s turn to try

Bulldog Drummond has retired from fighting tyranny to live peacefully with his wife, Phyllis, in the English countryside. He is just leaving his sleepy local pub when he is accosted by two sinister strangers. With a few quick movements, Drummond leaves the men dazed, bloodied, and eager to make a hasty retreat. The question is, who sent them? Drummond is certain he knows—a mysterious woman has lately been trying to intimidate him, and now she has decided to make her threats real. The truth, unfortunately, is far more diabolical.
 
When he returns home, Drummond discovers that after their thrashing at the pub, the men went forward with their real plan: kidnapping Phyllis. Getting her back will be the most perilous adventure Drummond has ever undertaken, but he is willing to risk everything and meet his most dangerous foe yet in order to keep his beloved wife safe.
