The novel formed the basis for a number of film adaptations and appeared on the BBC's list of the UK's "best-loved novels."The novel was his first "shocker", as he called it - a story combining personal and political dramas.

He described a "shocker" as an adventure where the events in the story are unlikely and the reader is only just able to believe that they really happened.
