About this ebook

Sanger Rainsford is a big-game hunter, who finds himself washed up on an island owned by the eccentric General Zaroff.

Zaroff, a big-game hunter himself, has heard of Rainsford’s abilities with a gun and organises a hunt. However, they’re not after animals – they’re after people.

When he protests, Rainsford the hunter becomes Rainsford the hunted.

Born in New York, Richard Connell (1893 – 1949) went on to become an acclaimed author, screenwriter, and journalist. He is best remembered for the gripping novel "The Most Dangerous Game" and for receiving an Oscar nomination for the screenplay "Meet John Doe".
