- This is a most peculiar mystery. It was one made up the four children to entertain Nicky's Uncle Bob who had been ill. Messages in code - signals flashing at night - underground caves - a mysterious man called Harry ... what fun! Uncle Bob didn't really believe in the mystery, of course - until it bagan to come true! Then the fun began, and the pretend mystery became REAL!
