Contents
- Tom Ingles, now getting bored with working on his uncle's farm, gets a lift on a London -bound lorry driven on its night journey by one of his new friends. An attack on the lorry introduces the vivid, topical plot against the author's familiar background of the Shropshire Hills. The Lone Piners soon become involved in the thrilling consequences as they gather again at Witchend for the summer holidays.
