Bulldog Drummond. Hero, patriot, sportsman and quintessential English gentleman. An army officer in the First World War, Drummond knows how to fight hard and play fair and there is precious little that can shake him. Finding peace unbearably tedious, he puts an ad in the newspaper offering his services to any client who can offer adventure. An attractive young woman called Phyllis contacts him fearing her father is under the power of blackmailers. Without hesitation Drummond accepts the commission and starts to investigate, uncovering a German plot that threatens not just Phyllis and her family but the country itself.
