This somewhat belated sequel was first serialised in Sunny Stories between February 8th 1946 and January 24th 1947. The action purports to take place in the Easter holidays of the year following The Adventurous Four, which would make the time of the adventure 1942, but much of what is described in this story is plainly more appropriate to the time it was actually written.
When Tom, Jill and Mary go to stay at a little fishing village in Scotland, the local fisherman's lad, Andy, promises to take them out in his boat. But a storm takes them off course and they end up shipwrecked on a small group of islands! Worse, it seems the islands are being used as a secret submarine base by the enemy...
OK, I happen to be a relative, but that has nothing to do with my review of this book. Well, maybe a little, but the fact is, I'm no bartender. I don't have the know-how to mix drinks properly and I found this book REALLY easy to use. The arrangement by types of liquor make this guide truly idiot proof (no pun intended!). It's a great bar companion especially when my more liquor adventurous guests are around and they want a drink even they don't know how to make. Kudos to Amy for creating such a simple yet so useful guide!
