''Highly Engaging'' - Sunday Herald

''You could easily make a case that Andrew Greig has the greatest range of any living Scottish writer'' - Scotsman

The wager

To poach a salmon, grouse and a deer from three Royal 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.

Striding over the Scottish Highlands with a poet's eye on the wilderness and a firm grip on the adventure, Andrew Greig re-imagines John Buchan's classic novel with a little less tweed, a little more sex, and just the right measure of whisky.
