About this book
A sudden storm turns a quiet lakeside household into a scene of alarm. Margot has paddled away with a book and microscope, while Angelique tends the cabin and worries over signs of bad luck. When Hugh Dutton returns, he sets out to light a beacon for the girl through wind, rain and hail. This opening places Evelyn Raymond's story for young readers in a Maine woodland setting where curiosity and practical courage meet real danger.
Later, Adrian pulls Pierre from dangerous water, and the two must cross river rocks and look for shelter after losing their boat. Their search for food in an abandoned camp gives the adventure a practical texture: strength, experience and cooperation matter as much as nerve. The book combines outdoor suspense with a mystery, while the contrast between Margot's scientific interests and Angelique's fears adds another point of interest for readers of older children's fiction.
