Not Illustrated
Set around Walberswick on the coast of East Anglia, only the Mortons are involved in this story.
David goes to the rescue of Paul Channing,
a school friend in trouble, taking the twins
along for the ride. Just as well, as it's their talents which save the day, ending a
criminal conspiracy which saves Rose and Paul's father; all
against the backdrop of a tremendous storm which breaches the sea defences and floods the county. |
