Note: This edition enhances the standard Kids book text with the addition of 11, small B&W illustrations, which can be coloured in, at no additional cost. It is NOT simply a colouring book.

A girl on the sinking liner Lusitania is given a secret packet to save by a mysterious stranger. Pursued by criminals and the British government, she goes missing, leaving amateur detectives Tuppence and Tommy to find her and rescue the packet.

This version of the second Agatha Christie story has been specially adapted for kids from nine to twelve years old. The language and vocabulary are easy, and emphasis is on action using past, present and future simple tenses.
