Synopsis

A thrilling, brand-new adventure story - with an ecological edge. Dad looked at us solemnly. "We've been sent here by a very important international organization to engage in undercover surveillance." Tommo and I sat up. Had we heard right? "You mean you're spies?" gasped Thomas; When Mr and Mrs Pickford announce that they are moving the family to a lighthouse on a deserted island, Polly and her brother Tommo, think their parents have "finally flipped". Until they learn the truth: their mum and dad are spies, working to expose the illegal smuggling of endangered species. The risks are high, but it is not until a suspicious stranger is shipwrecked on their island, and Polly and Tommo make a horrifying discovery, that they realize just how much danger the family is in...

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Carol Sinclair was born in a small town near Wellington, New Zealand, the eldest of four children. From an early age she would invent stories to entertain her siblings and friends and after leaving school went on to do a variety of jobs involving writing. Her inspiration for Operation Lighthouse came from her sadness about endangered species. She says, "Conservation often seems more of a dreary duty than a fight for the planet. I wanted to create a world where the idea of saving the environment could be exciting." Carol has written several books, although Operation Lighthouse is her first title for children. She lives in Wiltshire with her partner, the artist Ray Ching.
