Can you hear something peculiar?" Jon said quietly. "A
high thin noise." "Yes, I can," whispered Penny.
"It's everywhere!" Now there was a faint glow above
the land. The whining noise increased. Then Jon pointed with
a shaking hand. Something - an object such as they had never
seen before - was rising swiftly into the night sky . . .
Penny's parents, home from abroad for a spell, suggest Penny
and Jon invite along the Mortons and Peter to share their
holiday in a lonely house on Dartmoor. And to the Lone Piners'
amazement they see strange flying objects there. Are they
flying saucers from outer space - or are they something to
do with the mysterious Secret Station high on the moor? What
is the sneaky little bird-watcher Green up to? And just what
is his connection with the pleasant but suspicious manservant
Donaldson? And when Jon and David see a sinister foreign helicopter
harassing the mysterious man living rough on the moors, the
plot thickens. As usual with their thirst for adventures the
Lone Piners are in the thick of things - determined to find
out all about the mysterious saucers - whose secret is finally
revealed in a thrilling climax. This is the eighth exciting
story in the Lone Pine Adventure series, and like all the
others it is a complete story in itself.
