The Thirty-Nine Steps by John Buchan
I'd heard the title of this book (and accompanying movie) many times before, but didn't realize it was a spy thriller (I thought it was horror instead, perhaps due to the Alfred Hitchock movie connection?). It's definitely a fairly thrilling read for the most part -- the descriptions of the Scottish landscape were a bit hard to follow -- and is a pretty enjoyable read.
