Quercus Publishing Return of John Macnab

When three friends decide to revive the challenge of the legendary poacher John Macnab (to take a grouse, salmon and deer from three Royal Estates), they plan for everything - except an unstoppable young woman with a past and time on her hands. No women poachers in John Buchan's John Macnab? Well, there are now—Scottish poet Andrew Greig has rewritten the classic novel for the 20th centuryThe wager: to poach a salmon, grouse, and a deer from three Highland Estates. The challengers: three men in a mid-life crisis who should know better. The wild card: a flirtatious female journalist who won't take no for an answer. John Buchan's classic is reimagined with a little less tweed, a little more sex, and just the right measure of whiskey. Striding over the Scottish Highlands with a poet's eye on the wilderness and a firm grip on the adventure, Andrew Greig weaves a tale with humor as sharp as a fish-hook and characters as feisty as a drunken ceilidh.
