A first edition, first printing published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1945. A very good book (or better) with a small name and date inscription to the rear of the front endpaper with a little spotting to the text block. Small patch of sunning to the foot of the spine. In a very good wrapper which is unclipped and has benefitted from some restorative repair to the spine tips and corners.
The fourth installment of Enid Blyton’s “Famous Five” series, siblings Julian, Dick, Anne, and George, along with their dog Timmy, spend their vacation at Kirrin Cottage. They stumble upon a mystery involving Smuggler’s Top, a foreboding mansion near their cottage. The Five’s curiosity is piqued when they hear rumours of strange activities and possible smugglers in the area. As they investigate, they discover secret passages, hidden compartments, and eerie occurrences within the mansion. Along the way, they befriend Tinker, a local boy who aids them in their quest to unveil the truth. The Five’s relentless pursuit of adventure leads them into nighttime escapades and daring exploration of Smuggler’s Top. Through teamwork and determination, they uncover the secrets of the mansion and solve the mystery, showcasing themes of friendship, bravery, and the thrill of discovery that are characteristic of the “Famous Five” series.
