Huntingtower by John Buchan
"Huntingtower" by John Buchan is a novel published in 1922. Retired Glasgow grocer Dickson McCunn embarks on a walking holiday in Scotland, only to stumble upon a Russian princess imprisoned in a mysterious house.

This fairytale-like adventure blends ordinary courage with international intrigue in
post-Revolution turmoil. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
