Bulldog Drummond. Hero, patriot, sportsman and quintessential English gentleman. An army officer in the First World War, he knows how to fight hard and play fair and there is not much that can shake him. Finding peace unbearably tedious he puts an ad in the newspaper offering his services to any client who can offer adventure. An attractive young woman called Phyllis contacts him fearing for her father who seems to be under the power of blackmailers. Without hesitation Drummond accepts the commission and starts to investigate and uncovers a plot that threatens not just Phyllis and her family but the country itself.

Sapper was born Herman McNeile in 1888 in Bodmin, Cornwall. He fought with the Royal Engineers in the First World War and was awarded the Military Cross for bravery. His war stories were published in the Daily Mail and were immensely popular - a collection of them selling 200,000 copies in a year. The first Bulldog Drummond adventure was published in 1920 and was an instant hit. He went on to write 9 more in the series, which spawned 24 films, in addition to radio adaptations, and inspired more. He died in 1937.
