Brief Summary by Poppy Hutchinson: George is infuriated when her Begetter proposes to 'borrow' her Island for the Easter holidays, and go and live in that location in a temporary 'belfry' he has had congenital in the Castle K. Not even the fact that it is all due to some important Scientific work he is performing, will content her; but will the holidays bear witness to be more eventful than the dull days George imagines, when the option of visiting Kirrin Island is impossible? Things accept a turn when Uncle Quentin suspects a trespasser on the Isle, and requests Timmy'south visitor, George becomes aware of a hair-raising mystery evolving around her Isle.
Total Review (This may contain spoilers):
Terry Gustafson's Review
The story has been told many times and information technology centres on a tower that'due south built to specifications on Kirrin Island and overseen by George'south begetter. At that place's a overnice picture on Page #17 of the Five and Quentin'due south wife in the pony-trap where they all gaze at the controversial and very prominent tower. Information technology'southward being used for some experimental work past Quentin who's living over there temporarily. George existence George and therefore very possessive is not happy with the usurping of her precious scrap of real-estate let alone the blot on the landscape.
The Five and Fanny (George's mama) visit the place. They look for Quentin and when he appears as if by magic, they have a picnic. George'southward begetter is every bit absent-minded-minded equally he always was and information technology'due south a wonder he can look afterwards himself but he seems to be manage. A Historic Moment occurs: information technology appears that after years and years of scrabbling in countless burrows Timmy catches a bunny-rabbit and the author displays her rather interesting and unpredictable way of reporting on unexpected circumstances. Information technology could be that that Anne or even George on sighting such an activeness would requite a shriek of horror "Oh my God! Timmy's caught a rabbit! Drop information technology! Come Here Sir!" In this case, Quentin is the ane who sees it and as if he was simply mentioning that someone's dropped their handkerchief, declares "My discussion, that dog's got a rabbit at last!" A distressed George doesn't take it and then calmly and ticks Timmy off well and proper for his law-breaking.
A man and his son descend on Kirrin Bay and when the Five encounter upwardly with the boy whose proper name is Martin he seems over-interested in the island and its tower. He'due south a little too nosy for Dick'south liking but George warms to the male child and that's probably because he thinks she'southward Dick's blood brother. They come across his father also who goes nether the proper name of Curton. He'south as well curious nigh Kirrin Island and its tower. Dick has 1 or two bosom-ups with George in this book because in his opinion she was giving away besides much information about the island — "... just like a girl!"
A system of signalling is arranged for Quentin so that the others on shore volition know he'south all right. Despite this and to George's horror, he requests that Timmy comes to stay on the isle with him because he feels that he's not lone. One never knows ... he might be in danger and he can't afford to have any of his secrets ferreted out. George very reluctantly hands the dog over and is as practiced as she tin can exist almost information technology.
The Five seem to become on all correct with Martin — the Curton boy, after on in the tale and fifty-fifty spend an afternoon at his place and find that he'due south quite a talented lad. His father however is someone they would rather avoid considering they think he's not a very prissy person and he's rather nasty to his son. At one phase, Anne — yes the timid Anne who in real truth is no Tiger, says to him: "You're a very wicked man. I only tin can't conduct you lot!" At present that'due south telling him where to get off but would you credit that burst to young Anne? Maybe I'yard joking.
George is unhappy. She wants to see Timmy. She must come across Timmy. Is he all correct over there on the isle? She rushes over to the local coastguard and uses his telescope to encounter close-upwardly through the window of the belfry. She spots a man but no Timmy. Is that person her male parent — she can't quite make out the features. Why isn't Timmy with him? She panics a piddling or perhaps that could exist increased to A Lot!
She's away like a Blue Streak is our George. Sneaking out of the cottage belatedly at dark she sails to Kirrin Island. In EB language, the chance has at present Boiled Up and George uses much resourcefulness and bravery to help her father. There are caves of course and a tunnel that reminded me of the i in The Isle of Take a chance. In due course the truth is revealed every bit to the purpose of the tower and the benefits that may come for mankind from Quentin's revolutionary ideas. Nonetheless at that place is much evil to overcome and the island faces the greatest threat in its turbulent history before the climax arrives with all the V involved and helped by friends from various quarters.
