Rogue Male
(1939)
1930-something: a professional hunter is passing
through an unnamed Central European country that is in the thrall of a
vicious dictator. The hunter wonders whether he can penetrate undetected
into the dictator’s private compound. He does. He has the potential target
in his sites and is wondering whether to pull the trigger when security
catches up with him. Imprisoned, tortured, doomed to a painful death, the
hunter makes an extraordinary and harrowing escape, fleeing through enemy
territory to the safety of his native England. But that safety is
delusive: his pursuers will not be diverted from their revenge by national
borders; the British government cannot protect him without seeming to
endorse his deed. The hunter must flee society, and he goes literaly
underground, like a fox to its earth. The hunter has become the hunted.
