As Peter rides across the Long Mynd to meet David and the twins at Seven Gates she is caught in a thunderstorm and forced to shelter in a ruined cottage. Here she meets a handsome young man to whom she is instantly attracted and who asks for help in exploring the country she has known for sixteen years.
This is the beginning of an astonishing adventure involving the Lone Piners and in which David and Peter are eventually imprisoned by a fall of rock in the old mine workings in the heart of the Stiperstones - and realise that they are growing up. The twins and their Scottie dog, brave Jenny who is rescued from a frightening situation by her hero Tom Ingles, and young Harriet too, all play their part in a search for treasure which was hidden in the hills by an enemy twenty years ago.
