A tale of an unsuspecting member of the British Foreign Office who becomes enmeshed in a German plot to invade England. An early example of the spy story originally published in 1903, the book is memorably set on the North Sea coast near the Frisian Islands. Never mind its origins as British propaganda warning against the German threat, this fast-paced book is a classic.
