Hardcover. NY, Viking Press, 1st, 1949, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Hardbound, light blue cloth, 248 pages. Illustrated by Rafaello Busoni. Illustrated endpapers. Top edge brown. 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.
