Brief Summary: George has spotted an escaped convict in Kirrin Village. She recognises his picture from the local paper. But why is he hanging around the boarded-up old lighthouse? George and Timmy don't have a clue until they overhear a secret conversation about a hoard of stolen jewels...These prequels are an ideal lead up to the Famous Five books for contemporary 7-10 year old readers. George was Enid Blyton's favourite and most fully realised character, whom she based on herself. Timmy was based on her own spaniel, Laddie.
