Adventure, intrigue, and daring rescues define Fire Below, a thrilling entry in Dornford Yates's beloved Chandos series. Returning to the scene once more, Richard Chandos and his loyal cohort-rich in courage and wit-are drawn into the political intrigue and perilous terrain of a fictitious European principality. A forged telegram lures them into forbidden territory to save a kidnapped young widow, setting off a cascade of twists, danger, and dramatic encounters. Yates's vivid characters, operatic pacing, and rich period flair make Fire Below a standout in early 20th-century adventure fiction, combining elegant prose with high-stakes escapades that still excite readers today.
