The 39 Steps by John Buchan

3.0

Complete twaddle as a story but fast-paced. If you’re looking for a plausible, tautly written thriller it’s one to avoid but as a lighthearted caper and a pioneering product of its time, it’s enjoyable enough. No point trying to compare with Le Carre though - more like Sherlock Holmes. Silly but fun.
