## Description

The gripping adventure that invented the mystery of Shangri-La . Flying out of India, a light aircraft is hi-jacked and flown into the high Tibetan Himalayas. The few passengers on board anxiously await their fate, among them Conway, a talented British consul. But on landing they are unexpectedly conducted to a remote valley, a legendary paradise of peace and beauty, known as Shangri-La. Have they been kidnapped? Can they escape? And do they even want to? From the author of Goodbye Mr Chips , this is the epic adventure story of literature's most entrancing utopia and one of our most enduring literary mysteries.
