Spine faded, otherwise clean copy. A strange forest sunk between sand dunes, a tree house stocked with food and binoculars, a houseboat rented by two men who didn't like to be talked to -- all these play important parts in this fast-paced, thoroughly modern story of spying and counterspying on an island off New York. Jerry, sixteen, and his sister Jane, twelve, hadn't wanted to move to Fair Harbor at all; the prospect of wintering in a deserted summer resort appalled them! But they'd only been there a few days when they met Steve Larrup -- a new friend, a sailboat to borrow whenever they wished, these would have cheered anyone. But, more than just picnics and fun, they found themselves in the midst of a bang-up mystery. And it looked as if they weren't the only ones trying to solve the secrets of the Sunken Forest. Rene Prud'hommeaux spent two winters at Fair Harbor himself and lived on the island he describes. The artist, Rafaello Busoni, went out to visit him and got a good view of the forest and the waterfront before he even began his first picture.

The storytelling is captivating, describing how Shostakovich began composing the symphony under relentless bombardment in Leningrad and later finished it in Moscow, its triumphant performance in Leningrad during the siege, and how it rallied worldwide sympathy for Russia's plight. Music is at the heart of the story. As Anderson writes in the prologue, "it is a story about the power of music and its meanings," and he communicates them with seeming effortlessness in this brilliantly written, impeccably researched tour de force. A triumphant story of bravery and defiance that will shock and inspire. Many b&w illustrations.
