Review :
The story is fairly enjoyable, and Missee Lee is a very interesting character. The story isn't,
however, as engaging as some of the others in the series. Missee Lee's Latin lessons were boring
to the Swallows and Amazons. They also don't make exciting reading matter. The change of setting
is good though, and the last few chapters where they make their escape are excellent.
A good story, but not one of the best in the series.
