A beautiful 70th anniversary edition of the first book in Enid Blyton's classic Adventure series, gloriously illustrated with the original line drawings by Stuart Tresilian, now in full color, and with a foreword by Cressida Cowell

For Philip, Dinah, Lucy-Ann, Jack, and Kiki the parrot, the summer holidays in Cornwall are everything they'd hoped for, until they begin to realize that something very sinister is taking place on the mysterious Isle of Gloom—where a dangerous adventure awaits them in the abandoned copper mines and secret tunnels beneath the sea.
