(NO MORE THAN 5 BOOKS PER ORDER OR PARCEL ALLOWED) - Did belong to a library before but book and wrapper stayed in a good condition - Very scarce.  >>>   "Catchpole was the name of the family; there were a father, a mother, Jakie and Ruth, girls of fifteen and thirteen, and Ben who was seven. There seemed no reason why anything extraordinary enough to make a story about should happen to them; but it did when the three children were travelling back by themselves from a holiday in France. An elegantly dressed lady thought it would be clever idea to use a family of children to help her smuggle jewelry through the customs. Unfortunately for everyone the plan did not quite come off: and in the two terrible days that followed the young Catchpoles had to use all their courage and wits to get themselves out of some very difficult situations"      (Inside front dust jacket)
