About This Item
William Heinemann, Melbourne, VIC, 1954. First Australian Edition. Hardcover. Fair Condition/No Dust Jacket. His exploits were legendary
Captain John Staple, back from the battlefront, is already bored with his quiet civilian life in the country. When he stumbles upon a mystery involving a disappearing toll-gate keeper, nothing could keep the adventure-loving captain from investigating. But winning her will be his greatest yet
The plot thickens when John encounters the enigmatic Lady Nell Stornaway and soon learns that rescuing her from her unsavory relatives makes even the most ferocious cavalry charge look like a particularly tame hand of loo. Between hiding his true identity from Nell and the arrival in the neighborhood of some distinctly shady characters, Captain Staple finds himself embarked on the adventure-and romance-of a lifetime. 283 pages. Light fading to spine edge. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos. Category: Fiction::Historical Fiction; Australia; Fiction; Inventory No: 264269..
